In Plants Water is Transported Through

In plants, water is transported through

A. Stomata

B. Phloem

C. Root hair

D. Xylem

Answer: Xylem

Explanation

Within plants, the Xylem is responsible for the movement of water. A vascular bundle found in plants called xylem is responsible for transporting water all the way up the stem of the plant from the roots.

What is Xylem?

Within plants, the Xylem is responsible for the movement of water. A vascular bundle found in plants called xylem is responsible for transporting water all the way up the stem of the plant from the roots. Additionally, it transports water and nutrients to all parts of the plant. 

Xylem is made up of tracheids, the parenchyma of the xylem, xylem fibers and vessels. The breakdown of the cell walls at the ends of the xylem cells results in the formation of a cavity or channel.

Function of Xylem

• These minerals and nutrients are drawn up from the ground by the roots, with the help of the water
• Both the xylem and the phloem, which are responsible for transporting food from the leaves to the rest of the plant, play a role in the plant’s ability to support itself on its own
• It is the job of the cells in the xylem to transport water throughout the plant
• One of the types of cells that can be found in the lungs is referred to as a tracheary element. Despite the fact that it is dead tissue, the xylem is still capable of transporting water in a very effective manner
• The xylem of a plant is a porous, water-conducting network that extends from the plant’s roots to its apexes and transports both water and dissolved minerals
