Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which plant parts are the tubes that carry water throughout the plant?
A
xylem
B
phloem
C
roots
D
leaves
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -There are two kinds of conducting elements (i.e., transport tubes) found in the xylem: 1) tracheids and 2) vessels (Figure 6).

Detailed explanation-2: -Stems carry water and nutrients taken up by the roots to the leaves. Then the food produced by the leaves moves to other parts of the plant. The cells that do this work are called the xylem cells. They move water.

Detailed explanation-3: -The tube-like structure called xylem is present in the stem that carries water to all the parts of the plant.

Detailed explanation-4: -The water-carrying tubes are called xylem. They transport water and dissolved substances from the roots to all parts of a plant. The food-carrying tubes are called phloem.

Detailed explanation-5: -Xylem vessels transport water and mineral ions from the roots to the rest of the plant. They are made up of dead, hollow cells with no end cell walls. This forms one continuous tube when the xylem cells are stacked on top of each other.
