Loading of phloem is related to
Updated On: Jul 18, 2024
- increase of sugar in phloem
- elongation of phloem cell
- separation of phloem parenchyma
- strengthening of phloem fiber.
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
When the phloem cells, just near the source, for example green leaves attain higher concentration of sugars, it is called the process of phloem loading. Sucrose is photosynthesised in the chloroplasts of mesophyll cells of leaves. Mesophyll cells are connected with each other | through plasmodesmata. Similarly plasmodesmata are also present between the mesophyll cells and companion cells and also between mesophyll cells and sieve tubes. There plasmodesmata are the 'channels' meant for the passage of sucrose.
