Xylem and phloem are the two types of vascular tissues in plants responsible for the transport of water, nutrients, and food. Xylem primarily transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem distributes sugars and other organic compounds produced through photosynthesis from the leaves to various parts of the plant. Together, these tissues play a crucial role in maintaining plant health and facilitating growth. Their efficient functioning is essential for plant survival and productivity.
The xylem and phloem tissues in plants are typically surrounded by a layer of sclerenchyma fibers known as the vascular bundle sheath. These fibers provide structural support and protection to the conducting tissues of the plant.
Vascular plants have two types of tissues rather vascular bundles called Xylem and Phloem. These vascular bundles conduct mineralized water (xylem sap) and organic nutrients (photosynthate, particularly sucrose) respectively to various parts of the plant body.
Phloem
No. Xylem and phloem are belonging to vascular plants only. Bryophytae are not vascular, and do not have these.
Vascular bundles contain both xylem and phloem tissues. Xylem is responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem transports sugars and other organic compounds produced through photosynthesis to different parts of the plant.
The conducting tissues - xylem and phloem.

The two kinds of conducting tissues in plants are xylem and phloem. Xylem is responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem transports sugars produced during photosynthesis to different parts of the plant.

yes, xylem and phloem are tissues in the vascular system
No, bryophytes are classified as NON-vascular plants. Both xylem and phloem are vascular tissues.
Conducting tissues (i.e. Xylem & phloem)
Vascular plants have two types of tissues rather vascular bundles called Xylem and Phloem. These vascular bundles conduct mineralized water (xylem sap) and organic nutrients (photosynthate, particularly sucrose) respectively to various parts of the plant body.
Tissues are a group of similar cells that together carry out different functions. In the case of the plant stem, for example, there is phloem for transporting food, and xylem for transporting water and minerals. Tissues have specific functions.
Phloem
Xylem and phloem are the two types of transport tissue found in vascular plants. Woody stems contain both xylem and phloem.
