In the process some of the mass of the hydrogen atoms is converted into energy in the form of light. The same process occurs in thermonuclear (fusion) bombs. In the Sun the process occurs in a controled manner. In a bomb it happens all at once in a big chain-reaction explosion.
Phloem. Definition. noun. A tissue in a vascular plant that functions primarily in transporting organic food materials (e.g. sucrose) from the photosynthetic organ (leaf) to all the parts of the plant.
I will tell you both the similarity and difference between them. Both xylem and phloem are vascular tissues found in a plant. Xylem is a tubular structure which is responsible â¦ for water transport from the roots towards all of the parts of the plant. Xylem consists of tracheids, vessels, xylem parenchyma and xylem fibres. 2  Also ray parenchyma Also the xylem of softwoods (Gymnospermae) do NOT contain vessels. 3  It is a living complex permanent tissue. 4  Inner phloem is alive.
