Correct option is D
Correct option : (d) Translocation
- The process of transporting soluble products of photosynthesis (such as sugars) and other materials from the leaves to other materials from the leaves to the other tissues of the plant is called translocation.
- This process occurs through the phloem, a type of vascular tissue in plants. It involves the movement of organic compounds.
Information Booster:
1. Transport in Plants
This chapter explains the movement of water, minerals, and nutrients in plants, including translocation in the phloem.
2. Photosynthesis and Its Products
Here, the relationship between photosynthesis and the transport of its products (like sugars) to different parts of the plant is discussed.
3. Phloem Transport and Transport Mechanisms
This is specific deals with the phloem transports substances, including the mechanisms of translocation ( e.g., pressure - flow hypothesis).
