Xylem : Water conducting tissue.

In xylem tissue, vessels and tracheids of roots, stem

and leaves are interconnected to form a continuous

system of water-conducting channel reaching all parts
of the plant. 1

Transpiration ( loss of water through stomata ) creates

1
suction pressure and creates a column of water.
2

This steadily pushes the water upward with dissolved

1
minerals in it.

Phloem : Food conducting tissue.

Phloem translocates soluble products of

photosynthesis, amino acids and other substances
from the leaves to storage organs of roots, fruits and
seeds, and to the growing organs. 1

Translocation takes place in sieve tube with the help of

companion cell, both in upward and downward

1
directions.
2

Osmotic pressure helps water to move into the phloem

tissue and moves other materials from the phloem to

1
other tissues.
