Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Water and mineral nutrients–the so-called sap flow–travel from the roots to the top of the tree within a layer of wood found under the bark. This sapwood consists of conductive tissue called xylem (made up of small pipe-like cells).
Detailed explanation-2: -Xylem is the tissue of vascular plants that transports water and nutrients from the soil to the stems and leaves.
Detailed explanation-3: -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.
