An Odd Instrument: Xylem

Xylem is a very odd instrument. Xylem is a type of plant tissue which is responsible for the transportation of water and mineral nutrients throughout a plant. When water is absorbed by xylem, the cells cavitate, producing a clicking sound. Who knew you could listen in on a tree drinking?

Well, aluminum can make some weird sound too.
