Given, It was observed that the leaves of a plant started getting wilted. Name the tissue which might have blocked ? State the role of this tissue in plants?

>> The tissue that got blocked is xylem. It is through the xylem that water and minerals absorbed by the roots from the soil and transported to the leaves and other parts of the plants. So, if xylem is blocked, then the leaves will not get the nourishment and will get wilted.

>> The role of Xylem tissue is to supply water and minerals obtained during the process of photosynthesis from the leaves to the various parts of the plant.

Hope it helps !!
