Maintain the osmotic concentration in the plant. If the osmotic concentration is higher or lower than the normal levels, the physiological process of the plants will be disrupted.

Help to cool down the plant surface during evaporation. Evaporation dormant heat is absorbed from the plant cells or the environment.

Produce suction force to help in the intake and absorption of water and mineral salts from the roots to the leaves via the xylem vessels.

Photosynthesis: It provides the water needed for food manufactured by photosynthesis in the leaves.
Cooling: Transpiration involves the evaporation of water. The cells in the leaves are exposed to direct sunlight. Energy from the sunlight can be transferred from the plant cells to the water causing it to evaporate. This causes the plant cells to cool down and prevents direct sunlight from damaging the delicate cells. Support:

The cells in a plant absorb water via osmosis and swell up. This results in a build-up of pressure called turgor pressure and the cells are said to be turgid. The cell wall surrounding all plant cells is made up of tough inelastic cellulose which stops the cells from swelling up too much.

Movement of Minerals: The water transported upwards from the roots to the leaves also contains dissolved mineral salts which are used to produce a variety of substances such as proteins in the plant. Hope it helped you
