This is the only type of xylem found in the earliest vascular plants, and this type of cell continues to be found in the protoxylem (first-formed xylem) of all living groups of vascular plants. Several groups of plants later developed pitted tracheid cells independently through convergent evolution .
Cross-section of a flax plant stem: 1. Pith 2. Protoxylem 3. Xylem I 4. Phloem I 5. Sclerenchyma 6. Cortex 7. Epidermis. In botany, a cortex is an outer layer of a stem or root in a vascular plant, lying below the epidermis but outside of the vascular bundles. [1]

Xylem sap is mostly made of water. This is because one of the main roles of xylem is to transport water and inorganic nutrients throughout the plant. [13] Water is not the only thing that makes up xylem sap though. Xylem sap contains long-distance signaling hormones, proteins, enzymes, and transcription factors.
In a vascular plant, the stele is the central part of the root or stem [1] containing the tissues derived from the procambium. These include vascular tissue, in some cases ground tissue and a pericycle, which, if present, defines the outermost boundary of the stele.

Bulcsú (Sándor Csányi) is a ticket inspector on the underground; he spends his nights sleeping on the train platforms, and never leaves the underground.His ragtag team of inspectors – consisting of the veteran Professzor (Zoltán Mucsi), the disheveled Lecsó (Sándor Badár), neurotic narcoleptic Muki (Csaba Pindroch) and dimwitted greenhorn Tibi (Zsolt Nagy) – is routinely ...
This is incorrect. Most clades of xylem-bearing plants lack vessel elements. The defining feature of xylem in recent cladistic and morphological literature seems to be the presence of the compound lignin, not a cell type. In fact, some of the "xylem" in the Silurian rhyniophytes has been found not to be true xylem, despite the structure of the ...
