Xylem-the water potential of the cell above it means that water is 'sucked' up the tube like a straw. Waste products are disposed of parallel to the xylem in the phloem, in the opposite direction of course. The xylem is made up of lignified (or 'dead') cells to keep the stem upright and provide support. Hope that helps :)
