The leaf vasculature of plants plays a key role in transporting solutes from where they are madefor example from the plant cells driving photosynthesisto where they are stored or used. Sugars and amino acids are transported from the leaves to the roots and the seeds via the conductive pathways of the phloem.
Phloem is the part of the tissue in vascular plants that comprises the sieve elementswhere actual translocation takes placeand the companion cells as well as the phloem parenchyma cells. The…
