Specialised Cells

They form tough hollow tubes that carry water from the roots to the rest of the plant.

• Xylem cells

• Root hair cells

• Phloem cells

They carry nutrients down from the leaves to different parts of the plant.

• Root hair cells

• Phloem cells

Their adaptations make it good at carrying oxygen.
