NEET BIOLOGY

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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Phloem translocation is generally believed to be driven by pressure and is achieved by utilizing energy. Material like sucrose is transferred into phloem tissue using energy from ATP. This increases the osmotic pressure of the tissue causing water to move into it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Translocation occurs through part of vascular tissue known as phloem that also transports carbohydrates, amino acids and other substances such as plant hormone which are made in tips of roots and shoots to the storage and growing organs.

Detailed explanation-4: -The transport of food from leaves to different parts of a plant is called translocation. It takes place with the help of a complex permanent conducting tissue called phloem. Phloem transports glucose, amino acids, and other substances from leaves to roots, shoots, fruits, and seeds.
