Detailed explanation-1: -Xylem is one of the complex permanent tissue present in plants. It is composed of xylem parenchyma, vessels, tracheids, and xylem fibers. They help in the conduction of water in the plant.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Abstract. Xylem is the specialised tissue of vascular plants that transports water and nutrients from the plant–soil interface to stems and leaves, and provides mechanical support and storage. The water-conducting function of xylem is one of the major distinguishing features of vascular plants.
