Similarities and differences between the xylem and the phloem?

Similarities between Xylem and Phloem

Ø Both xylem and phloem are complex tissue composed of more than one type of cells.

Ø Both are the components of vascular tissue system of plants.

Ø Both contain living and dead cells.

Ø Both contain parenchymatous cells.

Ø Both contain fibres.

Ø In primary vascular bundles both xylem and phloem are differentiated into proto- and meta- elements.

Ø Both shows primary and secondary growth.

Ø Both xylem and phloem are developed from the cambium.

Ø Both the term ‘xylem’ and ‘phlolem’ are proposed for the first time by Carl Wilhelm von Nägeli

Mitochondria is the cell organelle that produced the energy that is needed in the body system in form of atp, that is why it is called the power house of the cell. energy is needed by the living organisms to carry out the activities which sustain life.  if the mitochondria is destroyed atp will not be produced. if the mitochondria is destroyed, energy production will stop and the affected living organism will not have the energy to carry out the necessary life processes; this will lead to the death of the organism.
