Explanation:

Transport of water and minerals

Thus, a plant absorbs water and minerals from soil through roots and transport it other parts like stem, leaves, flowers etc. It is through two kinds of elements of xylem tissue called, xylem vessels and tracheid that water and minerals move from roots of a plant to its leaves

Explanation:

The vascular tissue xylem transports water and minerals in plants. Transpiration creates a suction pressure, as a result of which water is forced into the xylem cells of the roots. Then, there is a steady movement of water from the root xylem to all the plant parts.

Plants have two transport systems to move food, water and minerals through their roots, stems and leaves. These systems use continuous tubes called as xylem and phloem, and together they are known as vascular bundles.
