Explanation by: Official MCQ Buddy

Xylem is a vascular tissue in plants that primarily conducts water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant. It also provides structural support.

  • (A) Water & food – Incorrect; food is transported by phloem, not xylem.
  • (B) Food – Incorrect; phloem conducts food, not xylem.
  • (D) None of these – Incorrect, as xylem does transport water.

Thus, xylem = water transport, and phloem = food transport in plants.
