Solution

The correct option is C Sugar
Phloem is the living tissue that transports the soluble organic compounds made during photosynthesis(particularly sugar, sucrose) to the parts of the plant where needed whereas transportation of water and minerals is carried by xylem.

So the correct option is "Sugar".
