Detailed explanation-1: -Plants have two transport systems-xylem and phloem . Xylem transports water and minerals. Phloem transports sugars and amino acids dissolved in water.

Detailed explanation-2: -4.1. 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: -For transport in plants, they need a transport system to move food, water, and minerals around because for them no heart, no blood, and since these plants do not have a circulatory system, transportation makes up for it.

Detailed explanation-4: -The two primary vascular tissues are xylem, which transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the leaves, and phloem, which conducts food from the leaves to all parts of the plant.
