at sorce, food is moved by active transport in the sieve tubes of phloem.due to the presence of sugar in sieve tubes,their solutes concentration increse and water enter them from xylemthis resuts in higher pressur of water in these tubes, which drives the solution of food toward sink/.

What is a source and sink in a plant?
The basic idea of a source is as follows:A source produces something (a spring is a source).A sink consumes something (a hole in the ground that water pours into is a sink hole).But in biology, the terms have more specific meaning.That "something" is referring to carbohydrates."The movement of carbohydates occurs from where carbohydates are made or have been stored, called a source, to where they will be stored or used, called a sink."
Is sink node source or destination?
sink node is source
What is Sink and source mode of transistor?
Source mode at output provides safety than sink at output
Is the printer data source or data sink?
data sink
What type of math can be used to organized functions?
biology
Is wood a carbon sink or source?
It is immediately both; a Sink upon growth - including phytoplankton, and a Source upon combustion - all forms.
What does it mean sink or source power?
Consider a battery for a moment. A battery can be a source or sink type of power source. A light bulb would be considered a source current. When a battery or other item is being charged is it considered a sinking source.
Can 5V 2A works with a device requiring 5V 2.5A?
No... the source does not have the required capacity. The device (sink) would ask for more current which the source will not be able to provide. Do not use this source-sink pair.
When a plant respiration it behaves as a?
carbon source
What is it called to store food in a plant?
Source and sink
What do you understand by the term source and sink input?
The terms "source" and "sink" could be used for inputs but are more commonly used for output terminals. If a device has a "source" output, it supplies current to an external device by connecting it to some power source. If the device is a "sink" it supplies current to some other device by draining it away to ground (often -ve). This is where the names "source" and "drain" came from in the naming of Field Effect Transistor terminals. Many devices have both "sink" and "source" capabilities such as most operational amplifiers. Most of the time the "sink" and "source" capabilities of such a device are different because N material conducts better then P material.
Why are some organisms call producers?
they produce the source of chemical energy for themselves and for other organisms. -Biology
