vascular system
Noun: A network of vessels and tissues responsible for transporting vital fluids—such as blood, lymph, or sap—throughout the body of an organism. In animals, this typically refers to the circulatory and lymphatic systems. In plants, it refers to the xylem and phloem tissues that transport water, nutrients, and sugars.
The term "vascular system" is used to describe the complete transport structure within an organism. It is a singular noun but refers to a complex, interconnected network.
