If by "food" you mean the product of photosynthesis, this is transported through the plant (from the leaves and green parts) by the Phloem vessels - this is generally in a downward direction.
If by "food" you mean nutrients that are absorbed from the soil, these are absorbed in solution by the roots and then transported in an upward direction throughout the plant by the Xylem vessels

How does food and water get transfered in plants?
Water and food substances or nutrients are transported throughout the plant through the vascular bundle formed from the cambium. Xylem transports water from the roots to the leaves. The water it transports is needed by the plant in photosynthesis. After photosynthesis, sugar and other nutrients are produced and they are transported throughout the plant by the phloem. " Hope this will help.
This tissue transports food and water to the plant?
Xylem Tissue
What carries food from leaves to other parts of the plant?
There vascular tissues in the plant whcih carries everything throughout the plant, but the tube that carries food is the Phloem.
What plant tissue transports sugar solution?
Xylem moves water upward and Phloem move food and nutrients downward to the roots.
What contains bundles of tubelike cells that carry water and food?
A vascular plant contains bundles of tubelike cells which transport water and food throughout the plant

How roots get food?
Root hairs on the root absorb water and minerals that are present in the soil. These are then transported from the root hairs to the root, and then throughout the rest of the plant.
Why would a truckers strike lead to a shortage of food?
Well, it's a simple matter of how the food gets from Point A to Point B. It has to be transported from the farm to the processing plant. It has to be transported from the processing and packaging plant to the distribution centres. Then it has to be transported from the distribution centres to the stores where it's sold.
Do plant stems transport food?
Yes. A plant's food is created in its leaves using a process called photosynthesis; it is then transported along the stem into other parts of the plant, in order to nourish the plant.
This tissue transports food and water to the plant?
Xylem Tissue
What transports food made by photosynthesis throughout the plant?
the phloem transports organic substances made by photosynthesis throughout the plant, mainly sucrose
What type of plant which contains tissues of tube like elongated cells through which water and food are transported?
Stem
What plant cells carry food?
All plant cells contain some nutrients, however, the cells of the seed, fruit and root tend to be used for food storage. The nutrients are transported around the plant by phloem cells in the vasculature.
Why is it important to plant that phloem moves both up and down?
Because prepared food material is transported to all the body parts of the plant through phloem.
What plant tissue transports sugar solution?
Xylem moves water upward and Phloem move food and nutrients downward to the roots.
What carries food from leaves to other parts of the plant?
There vascular tissues in the plant whcih carries everything throughout the plant, but the tube that carries food is the Phloem.
How does a plant receive minerals through active transport?
Minerals are dissolved in rainwater. The plant absorbs the water through its root system. Water is transported throughout the plant by capillary action - which draws the water upwards (like sucking on a straw)
