Two types of plant tissue |
Xylem = on the inside Phloem = on the outside |
|
How xylem are adapted to their functions of transporting water: Tube - how they are connected - cells |
1. Long, tube-like joining end to end 2. No end walls > uninterrupted tube which allow water to pass through easily. 3. Cells are dead > no cytoplasm |
|
How xylem are adapted to their functions of transporting water: Lignin - The pit. |
1. Lignin helps to support the xylem and stops them from collapsing inwards. 2. Water and ions move into and out of the xylem vessels through the pit where there's no lignin. |
