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.
This tissue transports food and water to the plant?
Xylem Tissue
What is the primary function of the phloem in vascular plants?
The phloem transports synthesized organic food from the leaves to other parts of the plant.
What does phloem mean?
Phloem is a conductive (or vascular) tissue found in plants.Phloem carries the products of photosynthesis (sucrose and glucose) from the leaves to other parts of the plant. The corresponding system that circulates water and minerals from the roots is called the xylem. But unlike its xylem counterpart, phloem tissue is alive, and is a complex tissue composed mostly of two types of cells:Sieve tubes - these are cells which have no nucleus, elongated and joined end on end to form long straw-like tubes. These cells are joined to each other by perforated connectors called sieve plates.Companion cells - are fully functioning cells that assist the sieve tubes by performing cellular functions that the sieve tubes (lacking nuclei, ribosomes, and vacuoles) cannot.Maple syrup comes from the phloem (sap) of a maple tree.
How is food transported throughout a plant?
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
What vascular tissue carries food from the leaves to the roots?
The phloem carries the food down from the leaves. Not to be confused with xylem, which carries water up to the leaves.
In a plant cell what type of tissue carries food?
The phloem
Which structure carries food to non photosynthetic parts of the plant?
Phloem carries food .
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 vessel carries food through a plant?
the fertilization
What does phloem tissue do?
Phloem tissue is the tissue in plant stems that carry materials down from the top of the plant to the bottom. Xylem tissue is the tissue in plant stems that carry materials up from the bottom of the plant to the top. An easy way to remember this is: phloem=LOWem. Xylem=HIGHlem.
What plant part that holds the plant up and carries food and water to other plant parts?
its called the stem
This tissue transports food and water to the plant?
Xylem Tissue
A plant part that holds the plant up and carries food and water to other plant parts?
The xylem delivers water and the phloem delivers food
Which transport tube carries food or nutrients to the other plant parts?
Seive tube of the phloem
Tissue that moves food from leaves to other plant parts is called?
Stomata Vascular tissue, specially the phloem
Which organ tissue carries oxygen and food around the body?
A fluid connective tissue knwon as Blood carries oxygen and food
