What meant by the ascent of xylem water?

Ascent of xylem water is also known as the ascent of sap as sap contains minerals dissolved in water. Ascent of sap is actually the movement of sap from the roots all the way to the leaves where it can be utilized in photosynthesis. There are two prposed theories so as to exlain the ascent of sap. One is the "Root Pressure Theory" which says that root exerts a pressure on the water to push it upwards by absorbing more from the soil. But this pressure works only for a few metres. The second theory is more acceptable; "The transpiration Pull". According to this one, when water is transpired through the leaves, the evaporating water molecules pull the ones after them with the help of the adhesive and cohesive forces. This helps in the ascent of water from the roots, all the way through the xylem, to the leaves.
