Xylem vessels are responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem vessels transport sugars and other organic compounds produced through photosynthesis to different parts of the plant. Xylem vessels are typically found closer to the center of the plant stem while phloem vessels are located on the outer side, forming a vascular bundle.
Xylems and phloems look alike due to their specialized structure and function. Xylem in the vascular plants consists of similar tissues of trachieds, vessels and xylem parenchyma and perform the same function of transportation of water and minerals, hence it looks similar in all such plants. Likewise phloem consists of sieve tubes, companion cells and phloem parenchyma and perform the same function of conduction of food material to different plant parts.
Xylem is composed of tracheary elements (such as vessels and tracheids) and fibers. Phloem is composed of sieve tube elements and companion cells.
The main kinds of vessels found in leaf veins are xylem and phloem. Xylem transports water and minerals from the roots to the leaves, while phloem transports sugars produced during photosynthesis from the leaves to other parts of the plant for growth and energy.
The phloem in the stem transports sugars, nutrients, and hormones produced in the leaves to other parts of the plant for growth and metabolism. It also helps in the storage and distribution of these essential compounds throughout the plant.
xylem and phloem
.food is carried by phloem and water is carried by xylem.
All plants use xylem and phloem vessels.
Xylem contains Vessels, trachieds and xylem parenchyma Phloem consists of sieve tubes, companion cells and phloem parenchyma
The two main types of vessels in the leaf are xylem and phloem. Xylem vessels transport water and minerals from the roots to the leaves, while phloem vessels transport sugars and nutrients throughout the plant. These vessels are part of the plant's vascular system and play a crucial role in the distribution of resources and support for the leaf.

I think it is phloem.
Phloem vessels are made of living cells, including sieve tube elements and companion cells. Sieve tube elements are elongated cells that form the main transport conduits, while companion cells provide metabolic support to the sieve tube elements. Together, these two types of cells make up the structure of phloem vessels.
the xylem transports water and the phloem transports organic substances.
differ in such a way that xylem transport water while phloem transport food and nutrients
Phloem vessels,the sieve tubes.
water and sugars are transported in the xylem and phloem vessels of the plant
