How is a sieve tube adapted to its job?

The end walls of the sieve tubes are perforated and these perforated end walls are called sieve plates. Pores in the sieve plates offer less resistance to flow of liquid.Little cytoplasm in cells = only forms a thin layer lining the inside of the wall of the cell.cells of the sieve tube are living,thus facilitating translocation.sieve plates allow the phloem to seal itself rapidly if it is cut,since it can clot due to callose as a carbohydratesieve plates act as supporting elements thus preventing the phloem from collapsing. .
