Answer:
'Translocation' is the process by which the food synthesised in the leaves is transported to various 'parts of the plant'. The "phloem tissues" in the plant are responsible for "transporting food" produced in the "leaves" to the "different parts" of the plant.
Explanation:
Xylem and Phloem are the transporting tissue that transports nutrients, water and other useful elements that are important for the growth of a plant.
Xylem transports water from roots to "stems and leaves" while phloem is the living tissue that transports all the soluble organic elements that are formed during photosynthesis.
In general, Phloem transports sucrose to other parts. This whole process of transportation is called translocation.
The food synthesised in the leaves by the process of "photosynthesis" moves form leaves to the other area of the plant in the form of nutrient such as carbohydrates and amino acids due to the difference in osmotic pressures.
