NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Angiospermic phloem is a composed of four elements namely, sieve elements, companion cell, phloem fibres and phloem parenchyma and is responsible for transport of food from the leaves to the other parts of plants.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -phloem is the living tissue that transports the soluble organic compounds made during photosynthesis and known as photosynthates, in particular the sugar sucrose, to parts of the plant where needed. This transport process is called translocation.

Detailed explanation-4: -The sugar and other organic molecules are transported through the plant by means of a special layer of tissue called phloem. Phloem is composed of living cells that transport a water solution of sugars that we commonly call sap.
