The correct option is C 50 - 100 cm / hour
Translocation of prepared food occurs through phloem. Bicollateral vascular bundles can transport much more amount of sugars, than collateral vascular bundles having only a single patch of phloem. Maximum average rate of translocation of sugars is 100 cm per hour or 1 meter per hour.
