Xylem

Phloem

D
Cambium
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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. Water and solutes are transported by the xylem from the roots to the leaves, and food is transported from the leaves to the rest of the plant by the phloem.

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.

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: -Plant stems have some very special cells called xylem. These cells form long thin tubes that run from the roots up the stems to the leaves. Their job is to carry water upward from the roots to every part of a plant.
