- #41 Transport In Phloem
The movement of substances in phloem tissue is called translocation. The main substances that are moved are sucrose and amino acids, which are in solution in water. These substances have been made by the plant and are called assimilates. Phloem...
- #39 Structure Of Transport Tissues In Plants
Plants have 2 transport systems: xylem: transports water and inorganic ions from the roots to the leaves.phloem: transports food made in the plant (sucrose and amino acids) from the leaves to the rest of the plant. Both of...

Comparison between dicot root and monocot root
| Dicot root | Monocot root |
| 1. Limited number (2 to 6) of Xylem and phloem groups | Numerous xylem and phloem groups (above 6) |
| 2. Diarch to hexarch | Polyarch |
| 3. Xylem cells are polygonal in shape | Xylem cells are rounded in shape |
| 4. Pith is absent or reduced | Pith is large |
| 5. Secondary growth is present | Secondary growth is absent |
