Is food found in the vacuoles?

Yes, if by food, you mean nutrients. The vacuole is the structure of the cell that stores everything it might need in the future. This is why one can go without food and water for days, every time you eat or drink something, your brain is hardwired to think that this will be the last time you'll be taking a drink/bite out of something. So...most of the nutrients taken into our bodies are stored.


Are water and food carrying tubes found only in stems?

No, water and food-carrying tubes are not found only in stems. In vascular plants, xylem transports water and minerals, while phloem carries nutrients and food, and these tissues are present in stems, roots, and leaves. Roots have xylem and phloem to absorb water and nutrients from the soil and distribute them throughout the plant. Similarly, leaves contain vascular tissues to facilitate the transport of photosynthesized sugars.
