Question

What is the role of xylem and phloem in transpiration ??

Answer 1

Water moves through the xylem vessels from the root to the stem to the leaf. As well as the leaf cells needing water for photosynthesis, water also keeps the cells turgid which supports the plant. Inside the leaves, water is drawn out of the xylem cells to replace the water lost through transpiration.

The function of the phloem tissue is to transport food nutrients such as sucrose and amino acids from the leaves and to all other cells of the plant by the process known as translocation.

Answer 2

xylem-
it helps in transportation of water in all parts of plants.

phloem-
it helps in transportation of food in all parts of plants.
