The phloem in celery is not easily visible because it is located alongside the xylem within the vascular bundles, which are embedded within the celery stalk's tissue. The phloem is typically much thinner than the xylem and is surrounded by other plant cells, making it less prominent. Additionally, the phloem's primary function is to transport nutrients rather than water, which is primarily the role of the xylem, leading to a less conspicuous structure in terms of size and function.

What polysaccharides are found in celery?
xylem and phloem
Is a celery vascular?
Yes, celery contains both vascular tissues, xylem and phloem.
Are the strings of celery phloem?
Xylem - collenchyma cells.
Is a celery stalk absorbent?
Yes a celery stalk is absorbent becase of the Vessel tissue, Xylem, and the Phloem which are the parts of the stem of the celery stalk where the tubes that carry the water and minirals.
What is the name of the tubes in the celery stem?
phloem and xylem.(water carrying tube and food carrying tube)

What kind of cells are in the celery?
Celery is primarily composed of parenchyma cells, which are responsible for storing nutrients and providing structural support. These cells are rich in water and contribute to the crisp texture of celery. Additionally, celery contains vascular tissue, including xylem and phloem, which transport water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant. The presence of collenchyma cells also provides elasticity and flexibility to the celery stalks.
Is celery a fruit of a vegetable?
Probably not. I am not sure, but surely, I don't see roots plucking out when I pull a cellery stalk.
What nutrient does celery have?

Is celery non vascular or vascular?
Vascular, it's stem contains vascular bundles consisting of phloem (for carrying photosynthetic pruducts such as sugars) and xylem (used to transport water and dissolved minerals up from the roots). Also a question from me, what group of vascular plants does celery belong to.
How much does a head of celery weigh?
around 1 - 1.5 lbs for a full head of celery (see "What is the weight of celery?" in "cooking measurements")
Is celery a vascular or nonvascular plant?
Vascular, it's stem contains vascular bundles consisting of phloem (for carrying photosynthetic pruducts such as sugars) and xylem (used to transport water and dissolved minerals up from the roots). Also a question from me, what group of vascular plants does celery belong to.
