- xylem is a vascular tissue found in plants that transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant while also providing physical support.
- The tracheary components of xylem tissue are a group of specialized water-conducting cells.
- Xylem is found in all vascular plants, including seedless club mosses, ferns, and horsetails.
- as well as all angiosperms (flowering plants) and gymnosperms (woody plants) (plants with seeds unenclosed in an ovary).
- Tracheids and vessel members, which are both thin, hollow, and elongated, make up the xylem tracheary components.
- Tracheids are the sole water-conducting cells in most gymnosperms and seedless vascular plants, and they are less specialized than vessel members.
- The pit membrane is a thin modified main cell wall that allows water to flow from one tracheid to the next.
