Xylem translocates:
water only
Water and mineral only
Water, mineral salts and some organnic nitrogen only
Water, minerals salts and some organic nitrogen and hormones
Ascent of sap -
The upward movement of water from the root to aerial parts of the plant body.

Xylem is the complex conducting tissue in the plants. It is responsible for the translocation of water, mineral salts and ions. Plants utilize nitrogen in the form of ammonia () or nitrate ions. Hence organic nitrogen is not translocated. The transport of hormones majorly occurs in pholem.
water only
Option 2)Water and mineral only
Option 3)Water, mineral salts and some organnic nitrogen only
Option 4)Water, minerals salts and some organic nitrogen and hormones
xylem translocates all except organic nitrogen because nitrogen is utilised by plants in mycorhizal association so nitrogen is not transported
