The Xylem of a plant transports water and some nutrients.
The xylem transports water and dissolved nutrients up the plant; it also helps to form the woody part of the plant. Contrast with the phloem, which carries sugar and other metabolic products and wastes down from the leaves.
It is a vascular tissue.It conducts water and minerals
Water and mineral ions are carried by the xylem to the leaves of the plant through the body of the plant.
xylem transports water.
phloem transports sugars.
The xylem are tubes made of hollow, dead cells in the plant which transport water and water-soluble minerals upwards.
The answer given by the Community (below) is simply incorrect. Xylem is transporting tissue in plants which is responsible for taking water (and some nutrients) from the roots to the leaves.
Water is transported in Xylem vessels and sugar is transported in the phloem
Auxins are transported in the phloem, not the xylem.
Sugar is transported through a plant by the "veins" in the plant called phloem. Xylem is the other transportation system that transports water.
Xylem
The only two vascular tissues in a seed plant (a plant that produces and grows from a seed) are the xylem and the phloem. The xylem brings water and minerals to the plant while the phloem brings food to the plant.
The Xylem of a plant transports water and some nutrients.
Water is transported in Xylem vessels and sugar is transported in the phloem
Water is transported through xylem. Sugars are transported though phloem.

Water is transported through xylem and carbohydrates through phloem
Auxins are transported in the phloem, not the xylem.
water and sugars are transported in the xylem and phloem vessels of the plant
Xylem transports water up to the leaves.Water:Is absorbed from the soil through root hair cellsIs transported through the xylem vessels up the stem to the leaves.Evaporates from the leaves (transpiration)But the phloem transports nutrients to the leaves.
Sugar is transported through a plant by the "veins" in the plant called phloem. Xylem is the other transportation system that transports water.
Water is transported by the xylem.
