Tree rings are made of tissue called xylem.

构成年轮的称为。

This capillary motion is in full effect in xylem filaments thinner than human hair.

在纤维中毛细作用无处不在，这些纤维比人的头发还细。

Right beside the phloem is the tree's other tissue type: the xylem.

就在韧皮的旁边是树的另外一种叫。

This evaporation, called transpiration, creates negative pressure in the xylem, pulling watery xylem sap up the tree.

这种蒸发，叫作蒸腾作用，在中产生一种负压，把液体的树液往树方拉。

Through that space stretches the vascular bundle, with xylem to transport water and phloem which transport sugars after photosynthesis.

通过这个空间，延伸出维管束，负责运输水，韧皮负责在光合作用后运输糖。

So these are xylem sap feeders.

所以这些是汁液饲养者。

And xylem is just 95% water.

只有 95% 是水。

And there are two main types of cells that make up that vascular tissue: xylem and phloem.

构成维管的细胞主要有两种：和韧皮。

Phloem cells, on the other hand, transport stuff mostly in the opposite direction as xylem cells.

另一方面，韧皮细胞与细胞的运输方向相反。

To accomplish this herculean task, the xylem relies on three forces: transpiration, capillary action, and root pressure.

要完成这样艰巨的任务，要依赖于三种力量：蒸腾作用，毛细作用和根压。

And if we zoom in, we'll notice its xylem and phloem cells snuggled together, just like they were in the stem.

如果我们放大，我们会注意到它的和韧皮细胞依偎在一起，就像它们在茎中一样。

Right beside the phloem is the tree’s other tissue type: the xylem.

韧皮旁边是树的另一种类型：。

And pro-tip, xylem is one of my favorite scrabble words.

专业提示，是我最喜欢的拼字游戏之一。

Sclerenchyma supports organs that are fully mature, and similar to xylem, it has cells that are dead inside (physically, not emotionally) .

厚壁支持完全成熟的器官，与相似，它有从内死亡的细胞（我指的是身体，而不是情感）。

Carbon and water, more than 1,000 liters of water, in fact, flow freely through the phloem and xylem tubes carry it along.

碳和水，实际超过 1000 升的水，自由流动于韧皮和的管道中。

As the plant grows, stem cell clusters called meristems generate new xylem cells, which form bigger pipes to suit the plant's needs.

随着植物的生长，称为分生的干细胞簇产生新的细胞，这些细胞形成更大的管道以适应植物的需要。

After water flows from the roots to the leaves through the xylem, it can exit the plant through the tiny stomata mouths.

水通过从根流向叶后，再通过细小的气孔口排出植株。

This process, called osmotic movement, creates nutrient-rich xylem sap, which will then travel up the trunk to spread those nutrients through the tree.

这个过程，叫做渗透运动，会产生营养丰富的树液，这些树液会沿着树干向把营养传送到整棵树。

That causes air bubbles to form in the xylem, a specialised tissue that transports water from a plant's roots to its leaves.

这会导致中形成气泡，是一种将水从植物根输送到叶子的特殊。

And where these two forces pull the sap, the osmotic movement at the tree's base creates root pressure, pushing fresh xylem sap up the trunk.

这两种力量推动树液向，树根的渗透作用也产生树压，把新鲜的树液推树干。
