The vascular tissue system comprised of the xylem and phloem function mainly for conduction of water and dissolved minerals (xylem), as well as conduction of carbohydrates, primarily sucrose, for the plant to use as food. The ground tissue system which consists of cubic or round cells with thin walls and living protoplasts, functions as aid in photosynthesis, storage, and secretion.
