1. Identify and label the parts in of the diagram given below.
2. We give water to the roots of the plants and not to the leaves or stem. Is there any special structure present in the roots of plants for the transportation of water? Do plants also possess a system for the transportation of food from leaves to all the other parts?

1. Human excretory system
2. The vascular tissue for the transport of water and nutrients from roots to the plant is called the xylem. The xylem forms a continuous network of channels that connects roots to the leaves through the stem and branches and thus transports water to the entire plant.
The leaves synthesise food. The food has to be transported to all parts of the plant. This is done by the vascular tissue called the phloem. Thus, xylem and phloem transport substances in plants.
