it is called the oesophagus and the 'wind pipe' which lies behind it at the opening is called the trachea. regards
The food-carrying tubes of a plant, known as phloem, are located in the vascular tissue alongside the xylem. They transport sugars and other organic compounds produced during photosynthesis from the leaves to other parts of the plant for growth and energy.
Phloem tubes are responsible for transporting food, mainly in the form of sucrose, downward from the leaves to other parts of the plant. These tubes run parallel to xylem tubes, which transport water and minerals.
Stem
The tubes on a stem that carry food are called phloem. They transport sugars and other organic compounds produced by photosynthesis from the leaves to the rest of the plant.
Phloem is the type of vascular tissue responsible for transporting sugars and other organic nutrients produced by photosynthesis within a plant. This specialized tissue forms a network of tubes that distribute food to various parts of the plant for growth and development.
no it dosent have food on it
vascular
yes it is and xylem is for the water carrying tubes
phloem and xylem.(water carrying tube and food carrying tube)
yes
Plants with tubes for carrying food and water are known as vascular plants. These include ferns, gymnosperms (such as conifers), and angiosperms (flowering plants). The tubes responsible for transporting water are called xylem, while the tubes for transporting food are called phloem.
yes!
the top of the phloem will swell
The transport systems. They are called water carrying tubes and food carrying tubes. they transport the substances absorbed by the roots.
send muscular waves of food called peristalsis toward the stomach
The phloem (food carrying tubes) and the xylem (water and minerals carrying tube) are found in the stem
Plants have specialized tubes called xylem that transport water from the roots to the leaves. These tubes create a continuous column of water due to adhesion and cohesion forces. Water is absorbed by the roots and moves up the xylem through capillary action, supporting the plant's structure and facilitating the exchange of gases.
