Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The plant tissue that carries food materials DOWNWARD from the leaves to the rest of the pant is the ____
A
Phloem
B
Stomata
C
Chlorophyll
D
Xylem
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The two primary vascular tissues are xylem, which transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the leaves, and phloem, which conducts food from the leaves to all parts of the plant.

Detailed explanation-2: -The phloem carries food downward from the leaves to the roots. Xylem cells constitute the major part of a mature woody stem or root.

Detailed explanation-3: -phloem, plant vascular tissue that conducts foods made in the leaves during photosynthesis to all other parts of the plant. Phloem is composed of various specialized cells called sieve elements, phloem fibres, and phloem parenchyma cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Vascular tissues are those tissue that is responsible for the transport of food, minerals, and water throughout the plant.

Detailed explanation-5: -Phloem (/ˈfloʊ. əm/, FLOH-əm) is the living tissue in vascular plants that transports the soluble organic compounds made during photosynthesis and known as photosynthates, in particular the sugar sucrose, to the rest of the plant. This transport process is called translocation.
