rewatch

Explanation:

In plant biology, a sink is a tissue or organ that imports and uses stored sugars for growth and development. In a very young carrot plant, the newly developing leaves are actively growing and require a large supply of nutrients (photosynthates) since they have not yet matured enough to produce their own food via photosynthesis. The stem and young root in this stage are not the primary sinks compared to the emerging leaves.

Answer:

The leaves that are just starting to grow
