Most plants secure the water and minerals they need from their roots.

The path taken is: soil -> roots -> stems -> leaves

The minerals (e.g., K+, Ca2+) travel dissolved in the water (often accompanied by various organic molecules supplied by root cells).

Less than 1% of the water reaching the leaves is used in photosynthesis and plant growth. Most of it is lost in transpiration.

However, transpiration does serve two useful functions:

It provides the force for lifting the water up the stems.
