Question

What is xylem and phloem?

Answer 1

Xylem is a part of stem of the tree which is responsible for conduction of water and minerals while phloem is a part of stem which transports food to all parts of the plant

Answer 2

Plants have two different types of transport tissue. Xylem transports water and solutes from the roots to the leaves, phloem transports food from the leaves to the rest of the plant. Transpiration is the process by which water evaporates from the leaves, which results in more water being drawn up from the roots.
