in a very young carrot plant, what region is the source?the stemthe rootthe leavesrewatch
Brief Explanations
In plant biology, a "source" is a tissue that produces and exports sugars via photosynthesis. In very young carrot plants, the embryonic leaves (cotyledons) and developing true leaves are the first structures capable of photosynthesis to make sugars for the growing plant. The young root and stem are sinks (tissues that import sugars for growth) at this stage.
