How do plants move the materials?
They have tubes in them called the xylem and phloem tubes. The xylem tubes carry water and mineral salts from the roots to all parts of the plant. The phloem which carry food from the leaves to all aprts 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.
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.
The transport tubes for food coming down the plant are called?
phloem
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 are phloem tubes?
Phloem tubes are the tubes in the plant transport that transports food from the leaves to the other parts of the plant
What are Phloems?
Phloem tubes are the tubes in the plant transport that transports food from the leaves to the other parts of the plant
How do the plant's watering carrying tubes work?
The plant's food carrying tubes transports food made in the leaves to all parts of the plant while the water carrying tubes carry water to all parts of the plant too.
How does the celery absorbs the food coloring?
The xylem tubes, tubes that suck up water and minerals in a plant, in the celery plant suck up the food coloring which to the tubes, is water. The tubes then just spread the water/food coloring to other parts of the celery.
What is the function of transport tubes in a plant cell?
there are two types of transporting tubes in plants : Xylem-It transports the water from the roots to other parts of plant. Phloem-It transports the prepared food from the leaves to other parts of plant.It translocates the food
What is tubes that move food from where it is made to other parts of the plant?
i think its called the xylem, and it is DEFINITELY not the stigma.

What is the the role of the phloem?
Phloem takes the plant food from the leaves and takes it to other parts of the plant
How food transported to different parts of plant?
When the leaves finish with photosynthesis (the process of making food for the plant), they use phloem tubes, which are tubes carrying sugar and other minerals down from the leaves to the roots, the roots will save up the sugar (plant food) under the ground. Some plants store the bulbs in bulbs (e.g. onions), some will turn it into starch (e.g. potatoes), etc...
Which parts of the plant help to transport substances absorbed by the roots?
The transport systems. They are called water carrying tubes and food carrying tubes. they transport the substances absorbed by the roots.
