The xylem tissues, though dead, conduct water from the roots throughout the plant, especially into the leaves.

The phloem conducts the finished sugars made from photosynthesis throughout the plant to wherever they are needed.

What are simple and complex permanent tissues?

The cells of the permanent tissues do not generally divide further. Simple and complex tissues are conducting tissues. Cells that are similar in structure and function are called assimple tissues. Cells of different types of permanent tissues are called as complex tissues.

What do you cal groups of conducting cells?

Groups of conducting cells are called bundles. These bundles help to efficiently conduct electrical signals through tissues in the body.


What plant phylum has members that lack water-conducting tissues?

Bryophytes, specifically mosses, liverworts, and hornworts, lack water-conducting tissues like xylem and phloem. Instead, they rely on diffusion to transport water and nutrients within the plant. These plants are considered primitive and are categorized under the plant phylum Bryophyta.


What are the conducting cells in phloem tissues?

The conducting cells in phloem tissues are primarily sieve elements, which include sieve tube members and companion cells. Sieve tube members are specialized for the transport of organic nutrients, primarily sugars, while companion cells assist in the metabolism and functioning of sieve tube members. Together, they facilitate the movement of photosynthates from source tissues (like leaves) to sink tissues (such as roots and fruits). This transport process is vital for plant growth and development.

What are plants without specialized conducting tissues?

Plants without specialized conducting tissues rely on diffusion for transport of water and nutrients within the plant. These plants are typically small in size and lack true roots, stems, and leaves. Examples include mosses and liverworts.

What are the two kinds of conducting tissues?

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.
