The statement that best describes the vascular tissue in seed plants is that xylem carries water and nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant.

Explanation:

Xylem corresponds to the tissue of the vascular plants that is responsible for the transport and distribution of liquids necessary for their development.

The main function of xylem is to carry water, mineral salts and other nutrients - in the form of raw sap - from the root to the whole plant, forming a network similar to the circulatory system of higher animals.
