Question

Define xlem and phloem

Answer 1

Plants have two different types of transport tissue. Xylem transports water and solutes from the roots to the leaves, phloem transports food from the leaves to the rest of the plant. Transpiration is the process by which water evaporates from the leaves, which results in more water being drawn up from the roots.

Answer 2

Xylem:-

The vascular tissue for the transport of water and nutrients in the plant is called xylem.

Phloem:-

The vascular tissue for the transport of food to the various parts of the plant is called phloem.
