Functions of xylem and phloem are alike as both transport substances in plants between roots and leaves through stem . Functions are different because xylem transports sap in upward direction while phloem can transport food in both directions up or down as needed .
The food conducting tissue of a plant is called phloem. Phloem is responsible for transporting sugars and other organic nutrients produced by photosynthesis throughout the plant.
The phloem is closer to the cortex in a plant stem.
Phloem and xylem are the two main types of vascular tissue found in plants. Xylem is the tissue that mainly carries water, and a few minerals, in the system. Phloem is the tissue that carries photosynthetic materials through the plant.
Parenchyma cells in "phloem tissue"
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.

A phloem transports food to a plant.
Phloem as well as xylem
Phloem is found in plants.

What's The phloem
Old phloem is called the secondary phloem. It is produced by the vascular cambium in plants and serves to transport sugars and other nutrients throughout the plant.
yes, xylem and phloem are tissues in the vascular system
