Brief Explanations
In plant biology, a sink is a tissue or organ that stores or uses the sugars (photosynthate) produced by photosynthetic sources (like leaves). Once a carrot develops leaves, the leaves act as the source producing sugars. The carrot's root is a storage organ that accumulates these sugars for later use, making it the main sink.
