Explanation:

True...

Stem helps in the upward movement of water and minerals is called ascent of sap. Xylem vessels transport water and dissolved minerals upwards from roots through the stem to the tips of leaves against the force of gravity. Transpiration helps in creating a vacuum inside the plant which pulls the water upwards.

Transpiration :

The continuous evaporation of water (or transpiration) from the cells of a leaf crates a kind of suction which pulls up water through the xylem vessles. Thus, transpiration helps in the upward movement of water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the leaves through the stem.
