Xylem is located in roots, stems and leaves of the plant and it transports water and minerals from plant roots to aerial parts. With phloem it forms vascular bundles. Dead cells in Xylem contribute to wooden parts of the plant.
Hope this brief answer helps you to learn more about Xylem, phloem, their development and their functions singly or jointly.
