Meaning of Ascent of Sap:
The upward movement of water from the root to the top of the plant is called as ascent of sap. Plants absorb water through the roots and transpire through leaves. The water moves from the root to the tip portion of the plant body against the force of gravity.
The mechanisms involved in the transport of water from the roots to the leaves of plants, some of them being more than 200 metres tall (e.g. Sequoia gigantea, Eucalyptus), is still un-resolved. We are, however, certain about the pathway of the water current which is through the lumen of the xylem .
