amisha45778:
xylem:- 1.it conduct water and minerals.2. conduction is mostly unidirectional i.e from roots to apical parts of the plant. 3. in addition to conduction,xylem provids mechanical strength to the plant. pholem:-1. it conducts organic solutes or food materials.2. conducting channels are sieve tubes. 3.pholem performs no machincal function for the plants.
