Solution

The correct option is D Vascular tissues
Plants do not move much and have many dead cells in their tissues. Therefore, they do not need much energy. So, they have transport systems slower than those of animals. In plants, the transport system consists of tube like passages made up of vascular tissue. There are two types of vascular tissues in plants-xylem and phloem.

Q. Why are plants and animals made up of different tissues?

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.
