Question

What is meant by translocation with respect to transport in plants ?

Answer 1

hey mate here is your answer

Translocation in plants means the movement organic molecules and some mineral ions. Movement of water from the soil to the leaves occurs in xylem vessels in a process called Transpiration. Transpiration, the evaporationof water from leaves, causes a pull on the water column due to the forces of cohesion between water molecules formed due to hydrogen bonds which causes the water to move upwards. Organic materials, mainly produced in the leaves, are moved around the plant in the living cells of the phloem by a process called translocation.
Unlike xylem (which is composed of dead cells), the phloem is composed of still-living cells that transport sap. Sap is a water-based solution, rich in sugars made by the photosynthesis. These sugars are transported to non-photosynthetic parts of the plant, such as the roots, or into storage structures, such as tubers or bulbs.

please give me as brainlist

Answer 2

translocation is the movement of materials from leaves to other tissues throughout the plant.plants produce carbohydrates in their leaves by photosynthesis,but non photosynthetic parts of the plant also require carbohydrates and other organic and non-organic materials.
