A lot of water is lost by plants in the form of vapour through stomata during transpiration.

The vascular tissue for the transport of food to the various parts of the plant is phloem

Nutrients are transported along with water to the entire plant via the vascular tissue called xylem.

Salts and urea are removed along with water as sweat.

Removal of waste products from the body is called excretion.

The water evaporates through the stomata present on the surface of the leaves by the process of transpiration. The evaporation of water from leaves generates a suction pull (the same that you produce when you suck water through a straw) which can pull water to great heights in the tall trees. Transpiration also cools the …

The food has to be transported to all parts of the plant. This is done by the vascular tissue called the phloem.

. A tissue is a group of cells that perform specialised function in an organism. The vascular tissue for the transport of water and nutrients in the plant is called the xylem.

Plants have pipe-like vessels to transport water and nutrients from the soil. The vessels are made of special cells, forming the vascular tissue.
