1. In plants food is transported in the phloem cells.
2.phloem sieve tubes are exactly small,the proboscis can penetrative only upto a phloem sieve tube.
3.Aphids excrete sugar out of the body as a sticky syrup called honey dew.

The inferences are given below -

1. Aphids clusters around the stems of plant.

2. These flies are green in color.

3. They mainly feed upon the juice of plant.
