Phloem

Real World Example

Imagine trying to get groceries from your car to your kitchen without spilling anything. This is similar to how the phloem in plants works to transport nutrients like sugars from the leaves, where they're produced, to other parts of the plant that need them. Just like you carefully carry bags of groceries through your home, the phloem acts as a network of "grocery carriers," ensuring that each part of the plant receives the "food" it needs to grow and function properly.
