DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Phloem (/ˈfloʊ. əm/, FLOH-əm) is the living tissue in vascular plants that transports the soluble organic compounds made during photosynthesis and known as photosynthates, in particular the sugar sucrose, to the rest of the plant. This transport process is called translocation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Phloem: In the case of plants, the synthesized food is stored by various storage organs which include-stems, fruits, roots, etc. The vascular tissue, phloem helps in the transportation of the synthesized food from the leaves to various storage organs.

Detailed explanation-3: -Xylem transports water and minerals. Phloem transports sugars and amino acids dissolved in water.

Detailed explanation-4: -They are bordered by companion cells that carry out the cellular functions of a sieve-tube element. Phloem tubes can carry sugars and amino acids in a variety of directions; depending on where the source and the sinks are located (sometimes roots can be sources or sinks).
