Vascular tissue also allows plants to grow nice and tall (essentially, it's what wood is made of), and it allows them to live far from water. If it weren't for vascular tissue, plants would just be algae and moss.

Are shamrocks vascular or non vascular?

Shamrocks are vascular plants. All plants are vascular besides algae, and some types of mosses. Any plant that has tissue that conducts water and nutrients from one part of a plant to another is a vascular plant.


What is vascular system?

A plant's vascular system consists of vascular tissue. The vascular tissue is made up of xylem (transports water) and the phloem (transports sugars and other nutrients). Another component of the vascular system is the meristems: the vascular meristem and the cork cambium, both of which are sites of growth.

3 things vascular tissue does in a plant?

1. The thick walls of the cells in the vascular tissue help to support the plant 2. One type of vascular tissue is phloem, which carries food. 3. Another type of vascular tissue is xylem, which absorbs water and minerals from the soil


What is the main difference between nonvascular plants and vascular plants?

The difference between vascular and non-vacular plants is that, vascular plants have tubes that carry water up the plant/tree, non-vascular plants dont have those in which case, they need to live near water. Vascular plants are considered the "flowering plant", non-vascular plants have spores and don't need to "mate" with another plant to make a new one, they just need to get their seeds off of them the right way. Vascular plants have a system of cells that transport water through the plant, non-vascular plants do not.

What is floem and xylem?

Phloem is a type of vascular tissue in plants that transports food (sugars) produced during photosynthesis from the leaves to other parts of the plant. Xylem is another type of vascular tissue in plants that transports water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant. Together, phloem and xylem make up the plant's vascular system, allowing for the efficient distribution of nutrients and water throughout the plant.


What makes bryophytes nonvascular?

bryophytes lack vascular tissue, and therefore they lack a true stem or leaves because these contain vascular tissues. Another is they lack the ability to reproduce outside of water, and therefore grow close to the ground.


What tissue types do the bryophytes plants lack?
