What is Xylem and Phloem Structure and Function about?
Xylem vessels transport water and minerals from the roots to the stem and leaves, while phloem vessels transport food materials like sucrose and amino acids made during photosynthesis from the leaves to other plant regions. These transport vessels are arranged together in vascular bundles throughout the root, stem, and leaves. Xylem cells lose their top and bottom walls to form continuous tubes that transport water from the roots to the leaves.
