**Step-by-Step Text Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for the name of the tissue that is associated with the translocation of mainly water, mineral salts, some organic nitrogen, and hormones in plants. 2. **Identifying Plant Transport Systems**: Plants do not have a circulatory system like animals. Instead, they have a vascular system that consists of specialized tissues responsible for the transport of various substances. 3. **Types of Vascular Tissues**: The vascular system is made up of two main types of tissues: xylem and phloem. Each of these tissues has distinct functions in the plant. ...
