Solution

The correct option is B Phloem
Translocation of organic nutrients from the region of source or supply to the region of sink or utilisation is mostly in the form of sucrose. Phloem (sieve tubes or sieve cells) is the pathway for this translocation, as found put by stem girdling, sieve tube puncturing, radioautography and chemical analysis of sieve tube sap.
