Why is the phloem in a leaf important to the roots of a plant apex?
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- phloem transports photsynthetic products to the roots

Explanation:

Phloem is the vascular tissue which specializes in transporting the solute molecules like sugar in the form of sucrose to in the plants.

The phloem connects the photosynthetic organ (Leaves)  to non-photosynthetic organs (stem and roots) of the plants by transporting the photosynthates or sucrose to various parts.

Since the roots also need the energy to perform metabolic functions so need the photosynthates to synthesize the energy molecule. They receive the photosynthates from the phloem.

Thus, phloem transports photosynthetic products to the roots is the correct answer.
