Materials translocated in the phloem, such as sucrose, amino acids, hormones and some inorganic ions. Some inorganic solutes that move in the phloem called mobile elements. In contrast, some are relatively immobile in the phloem.
A) Immobile elements
B) Mobile elements
i) potassium, magnesium, phosphate, and chloride
ii) caesium, zinc, magnesium and iron
iii) nitrate, calcium, sulfur, and iron
iv) potassium, calcium, cobalt and caesium
Which of the following are the correct match of mobile and immobile elements in the phloem?

The pressure-flow model explains phloem translocation as a flow of solution (bulk flow) driven by an osmotically generated pressure gradient between source and sink.
a) Phloem translocation, both active and passive mechanisms were considered. All theories, both active and passive, assume an energy requirement in both sources and sinks.
b) In sources, energy is necessary to move photosynthate from producing cells into the sieve elements. This movement of photosynthate is called phloem loading.
c) In sinks, energy is essential for some aspects of movement from sieve elements to sink cells, which store or metabolize the sugar. This movement of photosynthate from sieve elements to sink cells is called phloem unloading.
d) The Active mechanisms of phloem transport further assume that energy is required in the sieve elements of the path between sources and sinks simply to maintain structures.
From the given statements find out the correct for pressure-flow model.
