Q
  • pulls the water up the bodies of plants to travel to its parts.
  • As the H20 evaporates, the negative pressure created, exerts a pulling force that pulls the water upwards

Q
  • Allows H20 to move up to the plant
  • as the water gets inside the xylem, it clings to the xylem tissue ( ADHESION occurs) and at the same time the water molecules stick to one another ( COHESION - Hydrogen Bonds). Forming huge water chain
