Nucleus:
A tissue can be defined as a group of cells with similar shape and function.
The nucleus is a double-membraned organelle that contains the genetic material and other instructions required for cellular processes.
An organelle is a subcellular structure that has one or more specific functions to perform in a cell
Therefore, the nucleus is not a tissue, but a cell organelle.

The transport system in plants consists of two kinds of tissues X and Y. The tissue X is made up of living cells and consists of two components A and B. The component A has tiny pores in its end walls and contains only cytoplasm but no nucleus. On the other hand, component B has cytoplasm as well as nucleus. The tissue Y is made up of dead cells and consists of two components C and D. The component C has open ends whereas component D does not have open ends. In flowering plants, either only C or both C and D transport water but D is the only water conducting tissue in non-flowering plants.
