How do phloem cells differ from xylem cells in a tree?

There is a layer of living Phloem and there is a layer of living xylem. Both these layer produce dead tissue, the Phloem produces bark (dead protective outer layer), the xylem produces wood (dead supportive inner layer). Both the wood and the bark are dead. It is only the two thin layers of Phloem and Xylem that are alive.


What are the five tissue layers of a tree?

The five layers of a tree are: 1. The first layer is the bark. The bark protects the other layers. 2. If you rip off the bark of a tree, you will find the phloem layer. 3. After the phloem layer is the vascular cambium, which allows the tree to make a new bark after spring comes. This also includes the xylem tubes. 4. The sapwood layer stores the sugar the trees leaves make. Also, you get maple syrup from the sapwood of a maple tree. 5. The heartwood layer is dead xylem the tree had made past springs. The heartwood layer makes the tree steady, so the tree wont topple over too easily.
