Primary function of the phloem in vascular plants?

Xylem transports and stores water and water-soluble nutrients in vascular plants.Phloem is responsible for transporting sugars, proteins, and other organic molecules in plants. Vascular plants are able to grow higher than other plants due to the rigidity of xylem cells, which support the plant.

Phloem transports sugars and proteins. It helps the plant grow higher.
