|
|
continuous throughout the whole plant and is involved in the transport of materials between roots and shoots
|
vascular system
|
|
conveys H2O and dissolved minerals upward from the roots into the shoots

Phloem is made of ____ that form -
|
sieve-tube members
chains of cells to move sucrose, organic compounds and some mineral ions. |
|
Sieve tube members are _____ at functional maturity though they lack ----

|
|
Wood consist mainly of
|
trachids, vessel element fiber
|
|
