PHLOEM TRANSLOCATION+PYQS

Sieve cells instead of sieve tubes occur in:

Pick C: Gymnosperms. Thinking through PHLOEM TRANSLOCATION step by step rules out the lookalikes and leaves Gymnosperms. Skip these: A) Angiosperms; B) Monocots; D) Dicots. For hormones and genes, match the molecule or gene to its real role, not a neighboring pathway.

BASICS of PLANT+PYQS

Sieve cells are characteristic of phloem in:

Gymnosperms (B) is correct here. This is core BASICS of PLANT: once you know the definition or pathway step, Gymnosperms is the clear fit. The wrong ones are A) Angiosperms; C) Monocots; D) Bryophytes. If the topic is about gradients or potentials, water/solutes move from higher to lower of the relevant quantity.
