Sieve tubes

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer here is D

Explanation:

this is because this is where translocation takes place in a plant. the sieve tubes also known as The pholem and the pholem in a plant a responsible for food. something else you should know is that the xylem vessels are responsible for water. you're welcome

Answer 2

Answer:

D-Sieve tubes is the correct answer.

Explanation:

• The movement of water,mineral and food from one part to another is known as Translocation.
• The movement of water from roots to differenf parts of the plants is carried out by Xylem tissue.
• The movement of food from leaves to different part of the plants is carried out by Phloem tissue.
• Phloem is a Heterogenous tissue whuch areade up of Phloem parenchyma,Sieve tubes,Phloem parenchyma and companion cells.
• Sieve tubes transport/translocate the primarly sucrose and carbohydrates in the plants.
• Vessels and fibres helps in the transportation of water and mineral in the plants.
• Parenchyma helps in making up soft tissue of plants hence does not help in transportation.
