Question

The vascular tissues that transport water, minerals, food, and nutrients are the xylemcollenchymaparenchymacortex and collenchymaphloemsclerenchymapith.

Answer 1

Xylem transports water up to the leaves. Water: Is absorbed from the soil through root hair cells Is transported through the xylem vessels up the stem to theleaves. Evaporates from the leaves ( transpiration ) But the phloem transports nutrients to the leaves.
