translocation 0.0 / 5 ? Biologytransport in plantsASOCR Created by: jodiewilson02Created on: 04-06-19 11:11 translocation transporting sucrose around the plant the sucrose travels up the phloem cells in phloem are alive companion cells have lots of mitochondria (which perform aerobic respiration) and this produces atp atp goes through plasmodesma to the sieve tube from the companion cell one exception where atp doesnt stay inside of the cell sieve tube can then carry out a lot of active transport with the atp that the sieve tube has gained this allows sucrose to be taken around the plant (along with other mechanisms) 1 of 1
