Part of the Vascular tissue, which transports nutrients and sugars throughout the plant.
The phloem is closer to the cortex in a plant stem.
The vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) in the leaf are continuous with those in the stem and root. They serve the function of transporting water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant. Additionally, the epidermal tissue on the leaf's surface is continuous with the epidermal tissues in the stem and root, providing a protective barrier against environmental stresses.
The two vascular tissues found in the root and stem systems are xylem and phloem. Xylem is responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem is responsible for transporting nutrients and sugars produced through photosynthesis to different parts of the plant.
Parenchyma cells in "phloem tissue"
Vascular cambium
The main function of a bark in a woody stem includes an outer protective layer and an inner layer of living phloem which transports food through the stem
It supports the conductive cells of the phloem and provides strength to the stem.
A layer of cambium is found between xylem and phloem in dicot stem.
The medullary rays transport substances from the xylem and phloem to the inner and outer parts of the stem.
The phloem is closer to the cortex in a plant stem.

xylem and phloem
The vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) in the leaf are continuous with those in the stem and root. They serve the function of transporting water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant. Additionally, the epidermal tissue on the leaf's surface is continuous with the epidermal tissues in the stem and root, providing a protective barrier against environmental stresses.
The xylem transports water and minerals through the stem and the phloem transports the food.
It is the phloem
The two vascular tissues found in the root and stem systems are xylem and phloem. Xylem is responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem is responsible for transporting nutrients and sugars produced through photosynthesis to different parts of the plant.
