Question

Write on journey of water from soil to

xylem in roots.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Water from the soil enters the root hairs by moving along a water potential gradient and into the xylem through either the apoplast or symplast pathway. It is carried upward through the xylem by transpiration, and then passed into the leaves along another water potential gradient.

Answer 2

Answer:

Osmosis

Explanation:

Osmosis. The water passes from the soil to the root by osmosis. The long and thin shape of root hairs maximizes surface area so that more water can enter. ... After this, the water moves up the xylem vessels to the leaves through diffusion: A pressure change between the top and bottom of the vessel.Water from the soil enters the root hairs by moving along a water potential gradient and into the xylem through either the apoplast or symplast pathway. It is carried upward through the xylem by transpiration, and then passed into the leaves along another water potential gradient.
