Yes, xylem vessels carry water and other minerals from the root to the leaves. The movement of the water through the xylem vessels occur because of three processes: capillarity, transpiration pull and root pressure.

What materials do transport tubes carry from the leaves?

Transport tubes, specifically phloem in plants, carry sugars and other organic nutrients produced in the leaves during photosynthesis. These materials, primarily in the form of sucrose, are transported to various parts of the plant for growth, storage, and energy. Additionally, the xylem transports water and minerals from the roots to the leaves, but it does not carry materials from the leaves.
