How are leaves involved in the root's ability to draw water into a plant?

By a process called transpiration stream.
Water evaporates from pores on plant known as stoma, leaving the bottom photosynthetic layer of the leaf, the spongy mesophyll, without water. The water that has evaporated from the spongy mesophyll is replaced by water from the xylem. However, when water is pulled out of the xylem into the leaf, pressure is created in the xylem. To get rid of this pressure (kind of like a suction), more water is pulled up from lower regions in xylem.
