Answer:

Explanation:

Tracheids are elongated cells in the xylem of vascular plants that serve in the transport of water and mineral salts.

Tracheids are one of two types of tracheary elements, vessel elements being the other.

Tracheids, unlike vessel elements, do not have perforation plates.

vessels is that tracheids are narrow and less efficient in water conduction whereas vessels are wide and highly efficient in water conduction.

Answer:

TRACHEIDS:

Tracheids are elongated cells in the xylem of vascular plants that serve in the transport of water and mineral salts. Tracheids are one of two types of tracheary elements, vessel elements being the other. Tracheids, unlike vessel elements, do not have perforation plates.

VESSELS:

A vessel element or vessel member (trachea) is one of the cell types found in xylem, the water conducting tissue of plants. Vessel elements (tracheae) are typically found in flowering plants (angiosperms) but absent from most gymnosperms such as conifers. Vessel elements are the main feature distinguishing the "hardwood" of angiosperms from the "softwood" of conifers.
