telecom - (often plural) systems used in transmitting messages over a distance electronically. telecommunication. sampling - measurement at regular intervals of the amplitude of a varying waveform (in order to convert it to digital form)
The cells in vascular tissue are typically long and slender. Since the xylem and phloem function in the conduction of water, minerals, and nutrients throughout the plant, it is not surprising that their form should be similar to pipes.
Phloem is the vascular tissue responsible for the transport of sugars from source tissues (ex. photosynthetic leaf cells) to sink tissues (ex. non-photosynthetic root cells or developing flowers).Other molecules such as proteins and mRNAs are also transported throughout the plant via phloem.hloem Structure Phloem is composed of several cell types including sclerenchyma, parenchyma, sieve elements and companion cells. The sieve element and companion cell are found closely associated with each other in what is referred to as the sieve element/companion cell complex.
