Sugars made in photosynthesis in the chloroplasts of leaves are transported throughout the plant (up & down) as sucrose.The leaves represent the source and the tissues receiving the sucrose are called the sinks eg. buds, growing points etc.

What moves the sugars produced by plants?
Sugars are the food of plant. Food is trans located through phloem tissue.
The dissolved sugars produced in the leaves of a maple tree move to the trees roots through the?
phloem
What is phloem sap?
Phloem sap is a nutrient-rich, watery fluid that flows through the phloem tissue of a plant. It is responsible for transporting sugars, amino acids, hormones, and other organic molecules from the leaves, where they are produced through photosynthesis, to other parts of the plant. Phloem sap moves through the plant in a process called translocation.
Sugar is carried away from leaves in what tisssues?
Sugar is carried away from leaves through the phloem tissues. The phloem is a specialized vascular tissue that transports sugars, nutrients, and signaling molecules throughout the plant. Specifically, sugars produced during photosynthesis in the leaves are transported to other parts of the plant, such as storage organs or growing tissues, through the phloem.
What is in the xylem and phloem?
Water and Sugars!!
What does the phloem do in a plant?
transports sugars
How does sugar made in photosynthesis get to the rest of the plant?
Via the phloem, which transfer sugars Produced during photosynthesis from the leaves to all over the plant.
Sugars are conducted through plant tissue by the?
The sieve tubes of the phloem cells help to transport sugars. The stem of the plant has a layer of cells called phloem. Part of the phloem is made of sieve tubes that permit the flow of sugars solution through the influence of fluid pressure differential. The phloem also contains companion cells for the sieve tubes which aid in the transport of sugars to these tubes.
Phloem is made up of living cells. Phloem takes sugars in the to the roots?
leaves
What is carried in the xylem and phloem?
Water and Sugars!!
Which tube is wider xylem vessel or phloem vessel?
Phloem as it transports sugars two ways
Which cells in a plant can translocate dissolved sugars?
Phloem
