Question

Explain the mechanism of water movement from the roots up the tree to the leaves

Answer 1

• 1-Water is passively transported into the roots and then into the xylem.
• 2-The forces of cohesion and adhesion cause the water molecules to form a column in the xylem.
• 3- Water moves from the xylem into the mesophyll cells, evaporates from their surfaces and leaves the plant by diffusion through the stomata.
