The two critical properties of water in moving through xylem are cohesion and adhesion. Cohesion allows water molecules to stick together, forming a continuous column of water in the xylem. Adhesion allows water molecules to stick to the walls of the xylem cells, helping to counteract the pull of gravity and enabling water to be transported upward in plants.
