The water in the graduated cylinder rises due to the fact that the glass stopper displaces its own volume in the water.

Volume can be defined as the amount of space an object or substance occupies or the amount of space that is in in an enclosed region or container.

Therefore, when the glass stopper is placed in the measuring cylinder, its volume causes mores 'space' to be added into the measuring cylinder. 

This is an addition of volumes, that is the volume of the glass stopper and the volume of the water- which consequently is an increase in the space occupied.

 Therefore, it is an increase in the space occupied caused by the addition of the glass stopper in the water that leads to the rise in the level of the water in the measuring cylinder.
