Detailed explanation-1: -Translocation is the movement of elements within a plant from leaves to other tissue. Plants’ phloem, a type of vascular tissue, is where translocation takes place. Sugars that are produced by photosynthesis or that are stored in plant tissues like roots, bulbs, and tubers are examples of sugar sources.

Detailed explanation-2: -Translocation occurs in the phloem tissues, which consist of tube-like vessels called phloem vessels. These phloem vessels run from the leaves into every other part of the plant and are responsible for transporting dissolved organic solutes, such as sucrose and amino acids, from the sources to the sinks.

Detailed explanation-3: -The glucose that is made in photosynthesis needs to be transported to other parts of the plant where it’s needed-this happens in the phloem vessels in a process called translocation.
