at first they do, but as they mature, their cell walls thicken and they get htese things called lignin that makes it harder and rigid. this help keep plant standing up, but also means water can't get into the xylem cells so they die, thus no nucelus.

Do xylem cells have chloroplast?

No, xylem cells do not have chloroplasts. Xylem cells are responsible for transporting water and nutrients throughout the plant and are composed of specialized cells called tracheids and vessel elements, which lack chloroplasts.


What type of tissue surrounds the chloroplasts and the xylem and phloem in the leaves?

The chloroplasts in leaves are surrounded by a double membrane called the chloroplast envelope. Xylem and phloem in leaves are surrounded by a layer of parenchyma cells, which provide support and protection to these vascular tissues.


Do all cells contain cloroplasts?

No, not all cells contain chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are specialized organelles found in plant cells and some protists, where they are responsible for photosynthesis - the process of converting sunlight into energy. Animal cells do not contain chloroplasts.


What substances are produced in palisade cells but not xylem cells?

Palisade cells produce glucose and oxygen through photosynthesis, while xylem cells are responsible for transporting water and minerals throughout the plant. These functions are specific to each cell type and are essential for the overall health and growth of the plant.


Do a plant or animal cells contains a chloroplasts?

okay, animal cells don't have chloroplasts!! only plant cells do!! chloroplasts give the plant its green color!!


What do the xylem cells transport in the stem?

Xylem tissue transports water and minerals from the root, the phloem tissue transport sugars from leaves to other parts of the plant body.


What has chloroplasts?

Chloroplasts are found in plant cells.


Do animal cells contain chloroplasts?

No, animal cells do not contain chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are found in plant cells and are responsible for photosynthesis.


What type of cells have chloroplast?

Almost all plant cells have chloroplast. Essentially, if the plant cell is alive, it will have working chloroplasts. The xylem and phloem cells may be exempt from this generalization. Basically, any plant cell that's GREEN.


Where is xylem found in the body?

Xylem cells are in plants not animals.
