Water and minerals are transported though xylem. Food is transported through phloem. Xylems are vascular tissues that are hard-walled; Phloem is a vascular tissue that is soft-walled.
The vascular tissue xylem conducts water from the roots of the plant to the leaves where it is used in photosynthesis among other uses. The vascular tissue phloem conducts the sugars produced in...
Phloems distributes the products of photosynthesis around the plant (sugars) - maily in a downward direction, while xylem is responsible for transportinf water from the roots to the upper portions of...
Both xylem and phloem are vascular tissues found in a plant. Xylem is a tubular structure which is responsible for water transport from the roots towards all of the parts of the plant. Phloem is also...
Phloem goes to human which is used in transporting food while xylem goes to plant which is used in transporting water and minerals through photosynthesis
