C. phloem Both the xylem and the phloem are part of the vascular system of a plant. The xylem transports water and ions collected from the roots while the phloem transports water, "food," and other nutrients from the leaves (the primary sites of photosynthesis) to the rest of the plant.

Vascular tissue does this. There are two types of vascular tissue: xylem for transporting water and dissolved minerals and phloem for transporting food molecules.
Memory tricks:
Phloem and food both start with an "f" sound.
Xylem and water both start with letters at the end of the alphabet ... W, X, Y, Z.

There are two types of tubes in vascular plants: xylem and phloem. Phloem transports food. Just think... f-f-f-loem = FOOD.
