Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process by which carbohydrates are transported through the phloem to the rest of the plant is called translocation. This involves the movement of sugars and other organic compounds from source tissues (such as leaves) where they are produced by photosynthesis, to sink tissues (such as roots, fruits, and flowers) where they are used or stored. Translocation occurs through the phloem tissue, which is specialized for long-distance transport in plants.
