What is $translocation$? Why is it essential for plants? Where in plants are the following synthesized:
$(i)$ Sugars
$(ii)$ Hormones

(N/A) $Translocation$: The transport of food prepared in the leaves to other parts of the plant is known as $translocation$.
$Translocation$ is essential for plants to supply food to all parts of the plant. Food is required for producing energy during its oxidation,and this energy is necessary for all plant parts to perform their metabolic activities.
$(i)$ Sugars are synthesized in the leaves through photosynthesis and then transported to storage organs such as roots,fruits,and seeds.
$(ii)$ Hormones are synthesized primarily at the tips of the stems (shoot apices) and the tips of the roots (root apices).
