Question

question 91
the part of the plant that transports sugars produced by photosynthesis to the non-green parts of the plant is the:
a stomata
b phloem
c xylem
d root
e cuticle

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Stomata are pores for gas exchange, not sugar transport.
• Option B: Phloem is the plant tissue that transports organic nutrients (like sugars from photosynthesis) to non - photosynthetic parts.
• Option C: Xylem transports water and minerals, not sugars.
• Option D: Roots absorb water and nutrients, not transport sugars to non - green parts.
• Option E: Cuticle is a protective layer, not involved in sugar transport.

Answer:

B. Phloem
