Xylem transports food and Phloem transports water
|
Detailed explanation-1: -Xylem and phloem facilitate the transportation of water, minerals and food throughout the plant. Xylem carries water and minerals from the roots to the leaves. Whereas, phloem carries the food prepared by the leaves to different parts of the plant.
Detailed explanation-2: -Xylem contains Xylem vessels, fiber and tracheids. Phloem contains Phloem fibers, sieve tubes, sieve cells, phloem parenchyma and companion cells. Xylem is present in the centre of the vascular bundle, deep in the plant. Phloem is present on the outer side of the vascular bundle.
Detailed explanation-3: -In all vascular plants, phloem and xylem tissues are located next to each other, and there is clear evidence that these tissues exchange water.
