Xylem cells differ from other plant cells primarily in their function and structure. They are specialized for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, and they have a unique lignified cell wall that provides strength and support. Unlike many other plant cells, xylem cells are typically dead at maturity, allowing them to form hollow tubes that facilitate efficient water transport. This specialization enables plants to maintain hydration and nutrient distribution effectively.
What else can I help you with?
Is a xylem cell a plant or human cell?
Its part of a plant cell, a tube that carries energy.-----------------A Xylem cell is a plant cell. The xylem is the woody part of the tree. It is all of the cells between the pith in the center out to the cambium. The xylem consists of the sapwood and the heartwood. There is no one cell called a "xylem cell". Any cell in the xylem portion of the tree could be called a xylem cell.The vessels and/or tracheids in the outer few growth rings in the sapwood carries sap or water (with dissolved minerals) up to the leaves. The inner bark cells carry the food made by the leaves down the tree for use and for storage. The ray cells transport the food radially into the tree for growth. Also the rays cells can transport stored food radially outward in times of shortages or special needs. (like repairing damage by weather or disease or insects or animals, etc.)Phloem
In a plant what cell that allows photosynthesis to occur?
The stomata
What is the name of the cell that water travels up the stem of the plant?
xylem
What are the characteristics of xylem?
1) The main functions of xylem is to carry water and mineral salt upward from the root to different parts of shoots. 2)Since walls of tracheids, vessels and sclerenchyma of xylem are lignified, they give mechanical strength to plant body.
What substance makes up the cell walls of xylem vessel?
Not sure
What does a xylem cell do?
Xylem cells carry water and nutrients from the roots to other parts of a plant.
Does xylem cell has cell membrane?
No, xylem cells do not have cell membranes. Xylem cells are part of the plant's vascular system and are dead at maturity, so they lack cell membranes. Instead, xylem cells are composed primarily of cell walls that provide structural support and allow for the transport of water and minerals.
What is the function of xylem cell?
Xylem is a type of cell that distributes water throughout a plant. They have specialized cells that help water flow up a plant, to get where it is needed.
What plant cell transports water and nutrients?
xylem
What kind of cell is a Xylem?
It is not a cell. It is a plant tissue which conducts water

Where to find water movement in plant cell?
In the xylem cells
What is a plant stem cell composed of?
plant cell wall inside it you can find four parts of xylem and phloem
What is the specialised plant cell that carries water called?
The specialized plant cell that carries water is called a xylem cell. Xylem cells are responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant.
Plant cell layer that produces new phloem and xylem?
cambium
What is the name of the cell that water travels up the stem of the plant?
xylem
