Plant Structure and Function: Vascular Tissues

The video tutorial explains the structure and function of vascular tissue in plants, focusing on phloem and xylem. It describes how vascular tissue extends from roots to leaves, with a detailed look at tree stem layers, including bark, phloem, and cambium. The role of xylem in transporting water and nutrients is highlighted, along with its responsibility for forming annual growth rings, which help estimate a tree's age.
