Xylem adaptations include strong, lignin-reinforced walls, broken end walls forming a lumen, and a lack of internal cellular structure.
Xylem adaptations include thick, lignin-containing walls for structure, the breakdown of end walls to form a lumen, and lack of internal structure.
| Front | Describe and explain some adaptations of the xylem |
|---|---|
| Back | Thich walls containing lignin which gives structure Lignin causes cells to die so end walls between the cells break down forming a lumen. No internal structure |
