Question

Which vascular tissue of plant has bi-directional movement?

• A. Xylem tissue
• B. Apical meristem tissue
• C. Phloem tissue
• D. Ground tissues

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Phloem tissue

Phloem

Phloem transports food from the leaves to the rest of the plant. These tissues are involved in translocation or movement of food substances from the stems to growing tissues and storage tissues. Unlike xylem which is unidirectional, the movement in phloem is bi-directional.
