Translocation of carbohydrate nutrients usually occurs in the form of

  1. Glucose
  2. Maltose
  3. Starch
  4. Sucrose

Correct answer: Sucrose

Solution

In plants, carbohydrates are commonly moved through the phloem as sucrose because it is a soluble, non-reducing sugar well suited for transport. Glucose and maltose are more often used in metabolism, while starch is a storage polysaccharide and not transported long distances.
