Generally the pull of transpiration (evaporation of water through the leaves) will pull water in from the roots. Adhesion and cohesion also allow the water to move up the xylem of a plant (through capillary action).
Osmosis: if water is going into the cell it is called hypotonic. if the water is going out of the cell, it is called hypertonic.
plants and animals
Plants, use carbon dioxide (CO2) water (H2O) and sunlight to make energy (photosynthesis).
plants can absorb water through tiny pores in their roots. i dont know what the pores are called though. they also gain water by their leaves through holes which are called stroma, this is a gap in the leaf, and is surrounded by Guard Cells.
Plants produce oxygen in the chemical process known as Photosynthesis.
The main energy process that plants carry out is photosynthesis. This is the process they use to create food using carbon dioxide and water.
Plants need sunlight to perform photosynthesis, they use this to stay alive, they absorb the water through there stems and use the sunlight to generate energy from the water
most plant use there roots to absorb water from the earth or soil but some plants use their leaves to catch water.
Plants absorb liquid from the soil using their root system and also moisture is ablsobed from the leaves sometimes.
plants and animals
There are so many things that plants do with water. The main use of water in plants is in the process of photosynthesis where it is used for manufacturing of food.

1. Rhizoids keep plants attached on the soil 2. Rhizoids absorb water and nutrients Rhizoids utilize capillary action to absorb water by moving the water up them for absorption by certain plants, sponges and fungi. They use the same methods to absorb nutrients. Edit : to obtain water [GradPoint/Novanet]
They suck them up out of the ground using a system called osmosis. Actually its done by its water potential gradient and transpiration...where the water is transfered through the xylem and the mineral salts in the ploem
Plants absorb Carbon Dioxide through pores in their leaves and combine it with chloropyl to produce glucose for their nutrition, giving out Oxygen as their waste gas.
Plants, use carbon dioxide (CO2) water (H2O) and sunlight to make energy (photosynthesis).
Vines are climbing woody-stemmed plants that are part of the grape family. They use their large root systems to absorb water from the soil.
Plants absorb nutrients, such as water and minerals, through their roots. They also use sunlight to convert CO2 and water into glucose (food).
