Stem
Water and minerals are absorbed by the plant's roots and transported upward through specialized tubes called xylem. This process is driven by transpiration, where water evaporates from the leaves, creating tension that pulls water from the roots. The movement of water and minerals through the plant body is essential for nutrient uptake and maintaining plant structure.
The vertical tubes within a plant's stem which act like "elevators" for transporting food, water, and minerals are the
Phloem tubes are responsible for transporting food, mainly in the form of sucrose, downward from the leaves to other parts of the plant. These tubes run parallel to xylem tubes, which transport water and minerals.
The food-carrying tubes of a plant, known as phloem, are located in the vascular tissue alongside the xylem. They transport sugars and other organic compounds produced during photosynthesis from the leaves to other parts of the plant for growth and energy.
Xylem tissue is responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant. It consists of specialized cells that form tubes to facilitate the movement of fluids. This process helps provide nutrients and support for the plant's growth and development.
The phloem (food carrying tubes) and the xylem (water and minerals carrying tube) are found in the stem
The vascular tissue consisting of trachieds, vessels and xylem parenchyma.
Plants have specialized tubes called xylem that transport water from the roots to the leaves. These tubes create a continuous column of water due to adhesion and cohesion forces. Water is absorbed by the roots and moves up the xylem through capillary action, supporting the plant's structure and facilitating the exchange of gases.
The tubes that carry water and minerals from the roots to the other parts of the plant are located in the plant's vascular tissue. Specifically, the xylem is responsible for transporting water and minerals upwards from the roots to the stems and leaves of the plant.

xylem tubes
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.
The transport systems. They are called water carrying tubes and food carrying tubes. they transport the substances absorbed by the roots.
Plants with tubes for carrying food and water are known as vascular plants. These include ferns, gymnosperms (such as conifers), and angiosperms (flowering plants). The tubes responsible for transporting water are called xylem, while the tubes for transporting food are called phloem.
