Solution
The correct option is B Seive elements
The sieve elements are present in the phloem tissue which is responsible for the transportation of the food in the plants. The sieve tubes and the sieve cells form a tube-like structure in which the pressure is created due to the concentration of food at the source end and the sink end. This pressure is responsible for the movement of food in the sieve tubes.
