The water is taken in by osmosis through the root-hair cells. The water then passes to the xylem tissue in the middle of the root and travels up the stem via the same xylem tissue. From the xylem in the leaf it passes through the air spaces and out into the atmosphere through the stomata.
water potential draws in water from the soil and moves up through the xylem into the leaves
This is possible because water is polar molecule and cohesion and adhesion resulting from Hydrogen bonds drag water up the xylem until they reach the stomata.
The xylem vessels have a high water potential. Water diffuses from xylem vessels in the veins down its water potential gradient through adjacent cells. Water then evaporates from the spongy mesophyll which have numerous large intercellular air spaces to the atmosphere.
This is a process known as transpiration. Water is absorbed through the roots (Source) of the plants by osmosis across a negative water potential gradient. Water is then able to travel up through the plant via the xylem vessels. Cohesion of individual water molecules creates a chain of hydrostatic pressure which allows the water to move through the xylem to the leaf across a negative water potential gradient. Once water is at the leaf (Sink), it exits the leaf through the stomata and is removed by environmental factors such as wind and evaporation. The removal of water from the leaf maintains the negative gradient required for water to travel through the plant by osmosis, thus maintaining a chain of transport from the root to the leaf.
Plants use xylem to transport water from the roots to the rest of the plant. Sometimes plants use root pressure to raise water through the xylem into the plant.
No, water will move from higher water potential to lower water potential.
Both ferns and mosses are non-flowering vascular plants. They have specialized vascular tissue for the transport of water and nutrients. They reproduce using spores instead of seeds.
Tiger lilies are vascular. You can tell because of their lengthy stems and the fact that they reproduce using bulbs. The vascular tissue allows the plant to grew 2-6 ft tall and transport special material throughout their bodies
Most of the vascular plants have flowers, thus implying that they reproduce by seeds-gymnosperms. By contrast, non-vascular plants don't usually have flowers and thus reproduce by other means; for example, fungi reproduce by spores.
Ferns are one seedless vascular plant using spores in reproduction.
Using Tissue culturemany plant can be grown from one parent in disease-free conditions.
In vascular plants, phloem is the living tissue that transports soluble organic compounds.

There are different type of muscles in our body including the vascular. This is a sentence using the word vascular.
i love atmosphere.

The atmosphere is all around us.
Please, use a tissue and blow your nose.

how is possible to observe and compare muscle tissue by using a microscope
Liverworts are not vascular plants. The Liverwort is a very primitive plant like moss and the slime mold. Liverwort reproduces using spores.
