Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Sugars produced in sources, such as leaves, need to be delivered to growing parts of the plant via the phloem in a process called translocation, or movement of sugar. The points of sugar delivery, such as roots, young shoots, and developing seeds, are called sinks.
Detailed explanation-2: -Phloem is a highly specialised vascular tissue that forms an interconnected network of continuous strands throughout a plant’s body. It transports sugars, nutrients, and a range of signalling molecules between leaves, roots, flowers, and fruits.
