2.51 Phloem transportation and structure

Glucose -------------Transformed----> Sucrose
--> Reducing sugar --> non reducing sugar

Amino Acid + Sucrose=Sap
Sap= Transported through the Phloem (a tissue)

STRUCTURE:
Phloem-Inside the vascular bundle
Like a set of straw
Phloem cell wall has pores to allow the sap to go through
Can transport both up and down
