Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the leaf structure that is made up of “vascular” tubes that flow up (on directionally)? It transports water up from the roots to the rest of the plant in a process called capillary action.
A
Guard cells
B
Phloem
C
Stoma
D
Spongy mesophyll
E
Xylem
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The xylem is made up of small vessels that connect the roots and leaves. Xylem transports water, minerals, and nutrients from the soil to all the plant parts. There are two types of “transport” tissues in plants-xylem and phloem.

Detailed explanation-2: -The vascular system is comprised of two main types of tissue: the xylem and the phloem. The xylem distributes water and dissolved minerals upward through the plant, from the roots to the leaves. The phloem carries food downward from the leaves to the roots.

Detailed explanation-3: -Xylem is the plant vascular tissue that conveys water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant.

Detailed explanation-4: -Typical leaves are attached to the plant stem by a petiole, though there are also leaves that attach directly to the plant stem. The vascular tissue (xylem and phloem) run through veins in the leaf, which also provide structural support.

Detailed explanation-5: -The tube-like structure called xylem is present in the stem that carries water to all the parts of the plant. The water absorbed by the root is carried through the stem to all parts of the plant. Q.
