The process by which plants convey food material to different parts of the body is called

The correct answer is translocation. Translocation is the process by which plants transport food materials such as sucrose and amino acids from the leaves (where they are produced during photosynthesis) to the other parts of the plant such as stems, roots and fruits where they are utilized for growth and other metabolic processes. This transportation occurs through specialized tissues called phloem, which are made up of sieve tubes and companion cells. The movement of food in the phloem is usually from a source to a sink, and this process is facilitated by pressure gradient, which can be created by the active transport of sugars from source cells into the phloem.
