From experience, you know that sucking water straw very often result in the sides of the straw sticking together what prevents xylem vessels from doing the same?
-Deposits of lignin on the walls of the xylem vessels gradually led to the death of the cells. It is these deposits of lignin which keep the xylem vessels rigid under the high tensions generated by transpiration pull. -Woody plants increase in diameter as new xylem tissue is added. The rings that we see in wood result from different sizes of xylem vessels. The dark rings made of small diameter, closely packed xylem vessels mark the end of a growing season. In temperate countries, this is usually a year.
-The central region of a tree, called the heartwood, is made of xylem which no transports water. The vessels are often filled instead, with resins longer cells in the wood closer to the actively dividing gums The layer of cells still conduct water and mineral salts.
