C
cells
D
surface cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Xylem and phloem are examples of vascular tissues. The function of vascular tissues is to conduct water and food different part of the plant body. Vascular tissues are complex permanent tissues because they are made of more than one cell type. They are derived from the differentiation of meristematic tissues.

Detailed explanation-2: -Vascular tissue is comprised of the xylem and the phloem, the main transport systems of plants. They typically occur together in vascular bundles in all plant organs, traversing roots, stems, and leaves. Xylem is responsible for the transport of water and dissolved ions from the roots upwards through the plant.

Detailed explanation-3: -Xylem and phloem are called vascular or conducting tissues because both xylem and phloem tissues transport materials in plants, they are together called vascular tissues.

Detailed explanation-4: -The 2 types of vascular tissues in plants are the xylem and phloem. They are the conducting tissues that are responsible for the transport of water, mainly the xylem, while the transport of food in plants is done by the phloem tissue. Water and minerals are transported by the Xylem tissue.

Detailed explanation-5: -Xylem and phloem are the types of vascular tissues.
