Solution

The correct option is A Translocation
Sugars are synthesized in green leaves in the process of photosynthesis but are used not only in leaves but elsewhere also like endosperm, cotyledon, roots etc. This requires sugars to be moved to a different location or 'trans location'. The process of transferring sugar to different parts of plants from leaves is called translocation.
