Phloem
Seive tube of the phloem
The phloem tissue in plants is responsible for transporting food, typically in the form of sugars and other nutrients, from the leaves where it is produced through photosynthesis to other parts of the plant. This transport system allows for the distribution of essential nutrients to support growth and provide energy for various metabolic processes.
The phloem tube carries sugar away from the leaves. It is a specialized tissue in plants responsible for transporting sugars, as well as other organic molecules, from the leaves to other parts of the plant where they are needed for growth and energy.
The two structures in the stem of a plant are xylem and phloem. Xylem goes up and carries water and nutrients to the the leaves while phloem goes down and carries sugars to the roots of the plant.
The stem carried water up from the roots to other parts of the plants

leaves
In plants, nutrients produced in the leaves through photosynthesis are transported to other parts of the plant via the phloem. This vascular tissue moves the sugars and other organic compounds from the leaves to areas of growth and storage, such as roots, fruits, and developing shoots. The process is driven by differences in pressure and concentration, ensuring that all parts of the plant receive the necessary nutrients for growth and development.
The phloem is the part of the vascular tissue that carries food, such as sugars and other organic nutrients, throughout a plant. It transports these substances from the leaves, where they are produced through photosynthesis, to other parts of the plant for growth and energy.
Xylem carries water from the roots to toward the leaves. Phloem carries sugar and nutrients from the leaves toward the roots. Oxygen is transported by diffusion, NOT by the liquid transport system.
There vascular tissues in the plant whcih carries everything throughout the plant, but the tube that carries food is the Phloem.
The blood carries nutrients to the body. Most of the nutrients are transported to places that needs the nutrients the most.
Seive tube of the phloem
The phloem carries the food down from the leaves. Not to be confused with xylem, which carries water up to the leaves.
While xylem transports only in one direction...up, the phloem can move nutrients in either direction. The phloem gets nutrients from the roots to take up to the leaves to be used in photosynthesis and moves sugars and other nutrients produced from the photosynthetic process down to the roots for storage.
plasma carries the nutrients and everything else.
