Summary Introduction
Introduction: The arrangement of multiple types of cells in the vascular plants is called the vascular tissue system. It provides mechanical support to the plants. Xylem and phloem are the primary components of the vascular tissues. These components conduct water, nutrients, and minerals from the roots upward and throughout all the directions within the plant.
