Leaves are the sites of photosynthesis in many plants. Leaves require water from the roots for photosynthesis, but other non-photosynthetic cells contained in stems and roots require sugars that are produced by photosynthesis. Which tissue is responsible for transporting the photosynthetic products to other non-photosynthetic cells? a. Phloem b. Xylem c. Arteries d. Xena
