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: -xylem, plant vascular tissue that conveys water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant and also provides physical support. Xylem tissue consists of a variety of specialized, water-conducting cells known as tracheary elements.

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: -Hint: Xylem is found in the outer wood of trees and transports water from the roots to the leaves. Phloem is found in tree bark and transports sugars (such as sucrose) and organic compounds from the leaves to the rest of the plant.

Detailed explanation-5: -So, the correct answer is ‘conjoint’
