Main force for ascent of sap in higher plants is
Root pressure
Transpiration pull
Atmospheric pressure
Capillary force
High root pressure can cause water to be lost by leaves through the process of
transpiration
guttation
translocation
osmosis
_________ and _________ are non living plant tissues which help in conducting water and minerals dissolved in water from roots to upper parts of the plant.
Xylem vessels, Tracheids
Pholem vessels, Sieve tubes
Aerenchyma , Sclerenchyma
Collenchyma and Parenchyma
In the absence of transpiration, water moves into and up xylem because of
root pressure
turgor pressure
high soil mineral concentration
low soil mineral concentration
