Though there are many methods, the major way in which plants move water against gravity towards the leaves is transpiration. it occurs in the following steps.

  1. The water evaporates from the stomata in the leaves.
  2. This creates a lower water potential in the leaves than the xylem ( vessel for transportation of water in the stem).
  3. Water therefore moves from the xylem to the leaves.
  4. The xylem in turn withdraws water from the roots.
