Question is incomplete. Complete question has been attached.

Answer:

carries food produced by leaves

Explanation:

The diagram is a cross section of stem of a dicot plant, specifically Hypericum perforatum. It shows all the structures present in the stem like xylem, phloem, pith, cortex etc. The structure labelled X is phloem. It is present between xylem (stained red) and peripheral cortex. Phloem is responsible for conduction of sugars and nutrients in the plant thus it carries the food produced by leaves. Together xylem and phloem make the vascular tissue which surrounds the central pith (stained bluish-green).

Explain the difference between vegetation growth on the upwind side and the rain shadow side of a mountain

mixer [17]

Answer:

Wind and moist air is drawn by the prevailing winds towards the top of the mountains, where it condenses and precipitates before it crosses the top. The air, without much moisture left, advances across the mountains creating a drier side called the "rain shadow".

The windward side of the mountain is the side of the mountain that the wind blows into. This side is where all the rain tends to be because of the air cools as it rises, making clouds. The opposite side is called the leeward side. This is where the air sinks, leaving the side much more warm and dry.
