Both xylem and phloem are vascular tissues found in a plant. Xylem is a tubular structure which is responsible for water transport from the roots towards all of the parts of the plant. Phloem is also a tubular structure but is responsible for the transportation of food and other nutrients needed by plant. Xylem imports water and minerals while Phloem transports water and food. Xylem exists as non-living tissue at maturity, but phloem is living cells.
What else can I help you with?
What are the structures in stems that carry fluids up and down the stems?
The two structures in the stem of a plant are xylem and phloem. Xylem goes up and carries water and nutrients to the the leaves while phloem goes down and carries sugars to the roots of the plant.
What do the veins of the leaf contain?
They contain xylem and phloem. Xylem moves water up and phloem moves glucose up or down.
How do fungus affects the role of both xylem and the phloem?
A fungus role is to break down dead or decaying organisms in the environment, while xylem and phloem are vascular tissues that makes up living cells in plants. With that said the fungus may try to steal its nutrients and affect the specific roles that xylem and phloem operates.
What are the 2 types of tubes in a plant?
The two types of tubes in a plant 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 and other organic compounds produced during photosynthesis to other parts of the plant.
Is the xylem and phloem both located in the root?
They are constantly going up and down everywhere through the plant in tubes.
What are the structures in stems that carry fluids up and down the stems?
The two structures in the stem of a plant are xylem and phloem. Xylem goes up and carries water and nutrients to the the leaves while phloem goes down and carries sugars to the roots of the plant.
What do the veins of the leaf contain?
They contain xylem and phloem. Xylem moves water up and phloem moves glucose up or down.
Where do each of the products of photosynthesis go?
xylem up phloem down keeps the juicies from phloem down
What does xylem do in a vascular plant?
It transfers water and nutrients up from the roots to the rest of the plants. I remember this by remembering that between xylem and phloem, the phloem flows down, so the xylem goes up.
What are tubes that carry fluids from the roots up to leaves of vascular plants?
xylem and phloem
What is the system of a plant?
The vascular system is the transport system of the plant. It consists of the xylem and phloem. Xylem carries water up from the roots and phloem carries sugar down to the roots.
What organ system in an animal has a similar function to the xylem and phloem of plants?
Xylem transports water up from the foots. Phloem carries food down from the leaves. The circulatory system in animals is the closest analogue.
What direction does the xylem transport water?
The xylem in a plant transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the shoots and leaves. The movement of water is typically upward and against gravity due to the cohesion and adhesion properties of water molecules within the xylem vessels.
What is the vascular bundle of stems made up of?
They are made up of xylem and phloem. The xylem's primary function is to transport water, while the phloem transports nutrients.
How materials for photosynthesis move through a vascular plant?
The material is transported using Xylem and Phloem tissues.
What are the different between xylem and phloem?
They are both types of vascular tissue in plants, but phloem moves food down the plant from the leaves to the roots, whereas xylem moves water from the roots up to the rest of the plant tissue.
How do fungus affects the role of both xylem and the phloem?
A fungus role is to break down dead or decaying organisms in the environment, while xylem and phloem are vascular tissues that makes up living cells in plants. With that said the fungus may try to steal its nutrients and affect the specific roles that xylem and phloem operates.
