Xylem

The vascular tissue in plants responsible for the conduction of water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves and other parts.

Secondary Phloem

The plant tissue responsible for transporting nutrients, particularly the products of photosynthesis, from the leaves to other parts of the plant.

Primary Xylem
