Question

How does Xylem differ from phloem?

Answer 1

Hint: Xylem and phloem are the important tissues of the plant, these xylem and phloem helps in transporting required nutrients for the plant growth, Xylem help in transport of water and dissolve materials whereas the phloem helps in transport of solute molecules.
Any other organic molecules so these two components of the plant tissues are required for the proper growth and development of the plant.

Complete answer:

Xylem	Phloem
It helps in transport of water and mineral molecules.	It helps in transport of solute molecules to all organic molecules.
Found in the deeper part of stem tissues.	Found in the edges of the stem tissues.
In this photo conducting cells are dead.	Conducting cells in phloem are live.
The cells of Xylem tissue are star shaped.	The cells of phloem tissue are not star shaped.
The Xylem cells give mechanical strength to the plant.	The phloem cells do not have lignin cell walls.
The Xylem cells give mechanical strength to the plant.	The phloem tissue will not give any mechanical strength to the plant.
The Xylem tissue occupies the centre of the vascular bundle.	The phloem tissue is seen outside of the vascular bundle.
This island tissue is tubular with hard world cells.	The phloem tissue is tubular with sieve cells.
This tissue contains parenchyma cells.	The phloem tissue contains companion cells, see tubes and save cells.

Note: Xylem and phloem are the complex tissues which are seen on the vascular bundles of the plant cells that help in secondary growth of the plants and they are the major source for providing the required nutrients to the entire plant body.
Xylem and phloem in turn produce many different cells such as xylem fibres ,tracheids and phloem sieve tubes, companions cells and phloem parenchyma where each one specific activity which helps in the metabolism of the plant tissues and they are also the major sources for providing mechanical support to the plant.
