Endodermal cells actively transport mineral ions into the xylem, lowering xylem water potential, causing water to move in by osmosis, creating hydrostatic pressure that contributes to root pressure.
Las células endodérmicas mueven iones minerales al xilema por transporte activo, reduciendo el potencial hídrico del xilema y haciendo que el agua se mueva por ósmosis, creando una presión hidrostática que contribuye a la presión radicular.
