Question

What is the path of translocation of good in plants

Answer 1

Translocation is the movement of materials from leaves to other tissues throughout the plant. 
i) In higher plants, only the green parts can manufacture food and it must be supplied to other non-green parts for consumption and also for storage.

(ii) During the germination of the seeds, the insoluble reserve food material of the seed is converted into soluble form and is supplied to the growing regions of young seedling till it has developed its own photosynthetic system i.e., leaves.

Translocation of organic solutes always takes place from the region of higher concentra­tion of soluble form i.e., the supply end (source) to the region of lower concentration of its soluble form i.e., the consumption end (sink).

Answer 2

Translocation occurs in the tissue phloem of plants as it transports minerals.
