Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Biology definition: Xylem is a type of vascular tissue in plants. It is primarily involved in transporting water and minerals (from the roots to the shoot and leaves) and providing structural support. It is found in the stems and leaves of vascular plants.

Detailed explanation-2: -Together with phloem (tissue that conducts sugars from the leaves to the rest of the plant), xylem is found in all vascular plants, including the seedless club mosses, ferns, horsetails, as well as all angiosperms (flowering plants) and gymnosperms (plants with seeds unenclosed in an ovary).

Detailed explanation-3: -In leaves, the vascular tissues are organized in vascular bundles with xylem located on the abaxial side and phloem on the adaxial; xylem and phloem are separated by procambium.
