what is the difference between the tissues and vascular system

Dear student,

Tissue system is the organisation of different types of tissues. The structure and function of tissues vary depending upon their location in the plant body and therefore, it is of three types as follows:
 

No.

Tissue system

Tissues present

1.

Epidermal tissue system

Epidermis, trichomes, hairs, stomata

2.

Ground tissue system

Parenchyma, collenchyma, sclerenchyma, mesophyll

3.

Vascular tissue system

Xylem, phloem, cambium


Appendages that is the trichomes and hairs are formed by epidermal tissue system.



Vascular tissues are the specialized tissues of vascular plants that perform conducting function inside plant body. These tissues have mainly transport function and transport water, nutrient, minerals etc from one part of plant body to other. They are of mainly two types: Xylem and Phloem. 
 
Xylem Phloem
It is responsible for transportation of water and mineral salts from roots to the leaves. It is responsible for translocation of glucose to difference necessary parts of a plant.
Cell walls are very hard. Cell walls are relatively soft.
It consists of dead complex permanent tissue. It consists of living complex permanent tissue.
It consists of tracheid, vessels, xylem parenchyma and xylem fiber. It consists of sieve tube, companion cells, phloem parenchyma and phloem fiber.
