The phloem in vascular plants transports food from the leaves to every cell of the rest of the plant. This process is called translocation.

Through what do the products of photosynthesis move through the plant?
The soluble products of photosynthesis are transport in water medium throughout the plant with the help of Xylem tissue. It works with the help of pressure difference that occur during transpiration. Other products o photosynthesis are transported with the help of Phloem Tissues that use stored energy
What are Phloem cells?
Phloem cells are living vascular cells that carries sugar and organic substances throughout a plant.
What tissue transports water and sugars in a plant?
Phloem vessels,the sieve tubes.
Where the xylem and phloem vessels take place in the pant?
The xylem take materials up the plant while the phloem take materials down the plant.
How are veins and arteries like xylem and phloem in plants?
They are not very similar at all! The phloem vessels are most similar because the are alive and the run all the up and down the plant transporting substances other than water. The xylem vessels are really not very similar as they are lignafied (and therefore dead) they are woody and transport water from the roots. The arteries are probably most similar as they do not transport blood under high pressure, like the veins.
Vessels are formed of?
xylem and phloem
What are phloem vessels made of?
Phloem consists for a sieve tube and a companion cell
Function of xylem and phloem?
the xylem transports water and the phloem transports organic substances.
How do substances taken in from the soil move through the plant?
Through the process of translocation - within a system of vascular tissues, xylem and phloem
What brings food and water to your cells?
.food is carried by phloem and water is carried by xylem.
Could you tell the difference between a xylem and a phloem in a plant just by looking at the direction in which substances move in these tissues?
No; they're both hidden in the vein, plus, the substances in each the xylem and phloem travel upward. The xylem carries water absorbed by the plant's roots up into the leaf, and the phloem carries the food made during photosynthesis upward throughout the plant;

What kind of plant uses xylem and phloem for their transportation system?
All plants use xylem and phloem vessels.
What is the diffference between xylem and phloem?
Xylem contains Vessels, trachieds and xylem parenchyma Phloem consists of sieve tubes, companion cells and phloem parenchyma
Two types of vessels in the leaf?
The two main types of vessels in the leaf are xylem and phloem. Xylem vessels transport water and minerals from the roots to the leaves, while phloem vessels transport sugars and nutrients throughout the plant. These vessels are part of the plant's vascular system and play a crucial role in the distribution of resources and support for the leaf.
