what is xylem? (1 point)
Answered by GPT 3.5
Xylem is a complex tissue in vascular plants that helps in the transport of water, minerals, and nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant. It is composed of specialized cells called tracheids, vessel elements, parenchyma cells, and fibers, which are interconnected and form a network of tubes. Xylem also provides support to the plant, allowing it to maintain its structure.
