Answer:
Xylem tissue:
- It is composed of vessels, tracheids, xylem parenchyma and xylem fibres.
- It conducts water and mineral from roots to leaves.
- Xylem parenchyma are the living cells in xylem, remaining all are dead.
- They move only in uni-directional (i.e) only in upward direction.
Phloem tissue:
- It is composed of sieve tubes, companion cells, phloem parenchyma and phloem fibres.
- It trans locates food from leaves to different parts of the plant.
- Sieve tubes, companion cell and phloem parenchyma are the living cells in phloem tissue.
- They move bi-directional (i.e) both upward and downward direction.
