Answer 1

At first we will have to take a normal stem of any plant. Next we will have to put the stem in a beaker with some water in it . Next we will put some drops of ink or dye in the beaker to make the water coloured.Next we will have to leave the set up for overnight. Next day we will take out the stem and cut it into two parts. on looking at the plant section we will find that only the xylem is coloured .This proves water is conducted through the xylem
