Answer:

Translocation is the movement of nutrients and other materials from leaves to other tissues throughout the plant. Plants produce carbohydrates (sugars) in their leaves by photosynthesis, but nonphotosynthetic parts of the plant also require carbohydrates and other organic and nonorganic materials.

The food is manufactured in the leaves. From the mesophyll cells of the leaves, the food enters the phloem cells. They are then transported along the phloem to the different parts of the plant (stem, roots, etc.). From the phloem, the cells draw the food as per their requirement.
