Question

explain how food is transported in the phloem network (3marks)​

Answer 1

It is by using the energy from ATP that the food made in the leaves of a plant is loaded in sieve tubes of phloem tissue. Then by the process of osmosis water enters into sieve tubes that contain sugar. This raises pressure in phloem tissue. ... In this way food is transported to all parts of a plant through phloem tissue.
