7. Upward movement of water takes place through Xuem

system of plants absorb water and minerals from the soil.​

Answer 2

6) Root hair cells

hair cellsPlants absorb water from the soil by osmosis. They absorb mineral ions by active transport, against the concentration gradient. Root hair cells are adapted for taking up water and mineral ions by having a large surface area to increase the rate of absorption.

7). The cohesion – tension theory of sap ascent explains how how water is pulled up from the roots to the top of the plant. Evaporation from mesophyll cells in the leaves produces a negative water potential gradient that causes water and minerals to move upwards from the roots through the xylem
