Detailed explanation-1: -The products of photosynthesis (mainly the sugar sucrose) are a major component of the substance found in the phloem, called assimilate. Ions, amino acids, certain hormones, and other molecules are also found in assimilate. The movement of assimilate is called translocation, or assimilate transport.
Detailed explanation-2: -Final answer: Tracheids are not the element of phloem tissue.
Detailed explanation-3: -Tracheids is not a constituent of phloem.
Detailed explanation-4: -In the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are trans-formed into sugars or assimilates, with the help of energy from sunlight. These sugars can be used as building blocks for plant tissue production and to make new cells, for instance.
