This is when the water from the soil is taken by the roots of plants and used to make the plant grow. Then the water cycle starts all over again. Hope this helps you

How would you use the photometer to find the effect of wind on the water uptake by the shoot?

If you are referring to a the rate of water uptake in plants, then a live plant stem is placed in one end of the uptake photometer which is filled with water by a reservoir and tap. at the other end of the photometer there is a scale with an air bubble. Over time, as the plant takes in water, the air bubble will move along the scale and this can be used to work out how much water the plant is using. dont know if this will be of any help :)
