DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Phloem is a vascular tissue helps in the transportation of food. The end product of photosynthesis is glucose [C6H12O6] synthesized in leaves and transported to the various storage organs like flowers, fruits, seeds and tubers etc.

Detailed explanation-2: -Phloem: The soluble products of photosynthesis is glucose. Glucose is the organic nutrient which is produced in the plant and transported to all the plant cells. Glucose is transported throughout the body with the help of phloem which is a vascular tissue.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sources produce sugars by photosynthesis in leaves or green stems or by hydrolysis of starch in storage vessels (germinating seeds or roots/tubers) and deliver these products via the phloem to the sink (roots, buds, stem, seeds, and fruits).

Detailed explanation-4: -Xylem transports water and mineral salts from the roots up to other parts of the plant, while phloem transports sucrose(sugar) and amino acids between the leaves and other parts of the plants.

Detailed explanation-5: -Phloem transports food from leaf to other parts of the plant.
