The vascular system of the plant consists of vascular
tissues that help internally and externally transport fluids and nutrients
necessary for the growth and development of the plant. These vascular tissues
are called phloem and xylem. Vascular tissues consists of various type of cells
and does not have only one kind of cell. They are parts of the plant that play
a crucial roles because plants cannot survive without them. They can be
compared to the cardiovascular systems in humans where veins supply nutrients
to the organs and tissues.
