Question

Describe the process of the transpiration stream. ORExplain how water is transported from the roots of a plant to its leaves.

Accepted Answer

Water from inside a leaf evaporates and diffuses out of the leaf, mainly through the stomataThis creates a shortage of water in the leaf, so more water is drawn up from the rest of the plant through xylem vessels to replace it.This in turn means more water is drawn up from the roots and so there is a constant transpiration stream of water through the plant.
