You're welcome.
Are they not the same thing?

A vessel is a tube, whilst a tissue is a group of cells. For example, you could take out a chunk of cells from a xylem vessel and this would be xylem tissue. The vessel includes the part in the middle which the liquid flows through. Xylem tissue makes up xylem vessels. I don't know if I've explained it very well, but I hope that makes more sense.

It does tanx! I just go a bit confused because in my book it says a xylem contains xylem vessels I though a Xylem was just vessel if that makes sense.
