Complex

The complex tissue consist of more than one type of cells. All the cells coordinate to perform a common function. They transport water, minerals salts, food material to various parts of plant body.

They are of 2 types:

(1) Xylem
(2) Phloem

They are conducting tissue and called as vascular tissue. 

Xylem

It is composed of 4 different types of cell :-

(1) Tracheids: They help in transport of water and minerals vertically.
 
(2) Vessels: They help in transport of water and minerals vertically.
 
(3) Xylem parenchyma: They store food, helps in sideways conduction of water.
 
(4) Xylem sclerenchyma(fibre):They are supportive in nature.
