Question

in which form is food transported through phloem​

Answer 1

Food is transported mainly in the form of sucrose as well as other carbohydrates from the leaves to all parts of the plant in the phloem.

Explanation:

• Phloem is the vascular vessel involved in the transportation of food from the leaves to all parts of the plant.

• Food travels in these vessels mainly by the process of active transport, which requires ATP as a source of energy.

• The glucose produced by the leaves is usually converted into sucrose and other carbohydrate forms for transportation to different parts of the plant.
