Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Phloem is the vascular tissue responsible for transporting sugars (as well as other organic molecules) from the site of production (usually leaves) to other parts of the plant. Xylem, on the other hand, transports water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant. Parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma are all types of ground tissue, which makes up the bulk of a plant's tissue and is not involved in transport.
