fouzeh wasnt here today, we had brucie again. so once again he was walking us through plant-based info.
mosto f the lesson for me was spent sleeping, but i got down with what he was saying before-hand.
xylem are found towards the centre of the plant, and draw water (and minerals dissolved in it) up from the ground.
phloem are found towards the external of the plant, and transport products of photosynthesis (glucose & oxygen) around the plant (up and down) from the leaves, where they are produced. the products are used for respiration, for growth, can glucose can be stored as more complicated molecules.
re-barking a tree could potentially kill it coz you could be cutting off all the phloem on the outside.
