Which complex plant tissue is responsible for the upward conduction of water and minerals from roots to leaves?
easy Q12 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Understand the transport function
The question asks for the tissue that conducts water and minerals upward.Step 2: Recall functions of complex tissues
Xylem transports water and minerals from roots to leaves; phloem transports food; parenchyma and collenchyma are simple tissues mainly for storage and support.Final Answer:
Xylem → Option CQuick Check:
Water transport tissue = Xylem ✅
Quick Trick: Remember 'Xylem Up, Phloem Down' mnemonic.
Common Mistakes:
- Mistaking phloem for water transport instead of food transport.
