Question

In plants, ……………… tissues conduct food and water from one part of the plant to other parts *​

Answer 1

Answer:

phloem tissue

Vascular system, in plants, assemblage of conducting tissues and associated supportive fibres. Xylem tissue transports water and dissolved minerals to the leaves, and phloem tissue conducts food from the leaves to all parts of the plant.

Answer 2

In plants, vascular tissues conduct food and water from one part of the plant to other parts.

• Vascular tissues are found in pteridophytes, gymnosperms and angiosperms and they comprise two tissues- xylem and phloem that help in the conduction of water, minerals and food to different parts of the plant.
• Xylem tissue is involved in the transportation of water and nutrients from the root to plant parts such as stems and leaves.
• Phloem tissue is involved in the transportation of photosynthetic products such as sugars from leaves to different plant parts.
