Xylem is a complex permanent tissue that is made up of four types of cells or elements. These are:- 1. Tracheids 2. Vessels 3. Xylem parenchyma 4. Xylem fibres Among these, only Xylem Fibres are dead and the rest three are living. Xylem is also known as wood. Tracheids and Vessels have 5 types of lignifications: annular (in the form of rings), spiral (as a helix), reticulate (in the form of network), scalariform (as a ladder), and pitted (with small and circular unthickened areas called pits).

The features of xylem vessels, such as their thick lignified walls and hollow structure, allow them to transport water and nutrients efficiently throughout the plant. The presence of pits and perforations in the walls also aid in the movement of fluids. Additionally, the interconnected nature of xylem vessels enables them to form continuous pathways for water movement from roots to leaves.
There are four main types of elements that make up xylem tissue: vessel elements, tracheids, fibers, and parenchyma cells. These elements work together to transport water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant.
primary xylem is primary in nature & is derived from procambium. But secondary xylem is secondary in nature and derived from fascicular cambium and interfascicular cambium. Primary xylem is differentiated into protoxylem and metaxylem, but secondary xylem has no such differentiation. In primary xylem vessels and tracheids are long and narrow, and vessels don't have tyloses, but in secondary xylem, vessels are blocked by tyloses, and vessels and tracheids are wider and shorter. Xylem fibres are more abundant in secondary xylem , and found in small numbers in primary xylem. Also unlike in primary xylem, secondary xylem has differentiated into sapwood & heartwood.

Vascular plants have xylem
the root hairs and the xylem? i don't know if that's right.
Water is transported by the xylem.
This is the vascular tissue xylem.
A wooden table is made up of cells from the xylem and phloem tissues in trees. The xylem cells provide structural support and transport water and minerals, while the phloem cells transport sugars produced through photosynthesis. These cells undergo specialized differentiation and possess unique features such as lignin in the xylem for strength and durability.
