This transport process is called translocation.
Detailed explanation-2: -The phloem tissue consists of several types of cells, including sieve elements, companion cells, and phloem parenchyma cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -Phloem parenchyma and companion cells are elements of phloem and both are living cells.
Detailed explanation-4: -Companion cells are found in the phloem of flowering plants. These are specialized parenchyma cells They are nucleated cells with ribosomes and mitochondria.
