Solution

The correct option is A True
Xylem and phloem are two conducting tissues present in plants. Phloem transports food material from leaves to other parts of the plant body. It can conduct food in both directions. Xylem conducts minerals and water only in the upward direction i.e., from roots towards the stem.
