What plant has no roots and does not need watering?
Some types of floating plants do not have roots.
How does water move through a tree to the top?
Water molecules reach the tips of the roots and are absorbed. The roots absorb both water and nutrients so the water molecules are sucked in through the hairs of the roots. Due to extreme pressure in the roots, this pushes the water skywards. This force allows the water to travel up 3 metres of the 90 metres. But alas, there is still 87 metres left to go. Here pull takes over. The pull is evaporation of water, better known as transpiration if in leaves/ plants. Here, the pull process pulls the molecules up the full height of 90 metres and is used as a suction force.The process which works alongside this "push and pull"action is "capillary action" which works through the xylem of plants. Because the xylem is a tube, water molecules are indefinitely attracted and rise up these walls
What is the sun role in water cycle?
The role of the sun is to evaporate the water and make it into water vapor so clouds could absorb it an later it becomes precipitation. The sun is the most important part ot the water cycle. JORDAN WAS HERE :D

Where does water enter a plant?
A plant absorbs water through its roots, going up through the stem, to the rest of the plant. There are little openings in the leaves called "pores" which also absorb a bit of water and cells as well. -Hope this helped! Love, KOOKIE MONSTER

How does the rainforest's water cycle work?
Here is a breif summary of what it basically is: It rains in the rainforest. It goes into the ground and the tree's roots 'absorb' it and it goes to where ever the tree needs water. Then the process called 'precipitation' happens from the leaves losing water to the air, and it turns into steam, as you SHOULD know, steam collects together in the air, until it gets heavy and kind of bursts and falls towards the ground which we call 'condensation' or just 'rain.' Then the process starts all over again.
What functions do roots and stems share?
Stems support flowers and leaves, roots support the entire plant. They both have vascular tissue that transports water and nutrients and they both have a meristem which allows for lateral (width) and apical (length) growth.
How does the body prevent dehydration?
Generally the hand will lift a glass of water to the lips and tilt it back. When this happens the water goes into the mouth. After the proper amount of water is placed with in the mouth the lips will close and then something happens that I like to call "swallowing". This is when the muscles in the throat carry the water down into stomach. From here the body will absorb what it needs to rehydrate itself.

How does water travel witin a plant?
Assuming you mean vascular plants the transportation system here are the vascular tissues. The xylem moves water from the roots to the leaves. The phloem moves sugars, carbohydrates, from the leaves to everywhere in the plant needing these sugars.
