Xylem, It transports minerals and water from roots to shoots.
No. Root pressure can move water a short distance up the xylem because of the lower water potential of the xylem in comparison to the water potential in the surrounding cells
The Xylem tissue transports water and nutrients from the roots.

A waxy barrier in the plant root.The waxy barrier in the plant root prevents molecules that are in the cell walls from entering the xylem directly. To move into the xylem, molecules must first cross a plasma membrane and enter the cytoplasm of a root cell. This allows a plant to be selective about what enters the xylem.
water and dissolved mineral salts enter the root hairs from the soil.then the water travels up through xylem vessels in the roots,stem,leaves

The water is taken in by osmosis through the root-hair cells. The water then passes to the xylem tissue in the middle of the root and travels up the stem via the same xylem tissue. From the xylem in the leaf it passes through the air spaces and out into the atmosphere through the stomata.
