DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -In vascular plants, phloem is the living tissue that carries organic nutrients (known as photosynthate), particularly sucrose; a sugar, to all parts of the plant.

Detailed explanation-2: -The phloem carries food downward from the leaves to the roots.

Detailed explanation-3: -Final Answer: the movement of food in phloem is called translocation.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.

Detailed explanation-5: -Phloem is tissue that delivers food, made in a plant’s leaves during photosynthesis, to the rest of the plant. This tissue is part of the plant’s vascular system, which can be seen in the veins on leaves.
