because of water's cohesion property, which is its ability to stick to itself and it adhesion property, which mean that water can stick to other material, it can travel upward in a plant. also, the plant's tube is very small, which allow water to overcome gravity and travel upward.
What else can I help you with?
What direction does the xylem transport water?
The xylem in a plant transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the shoots and leaves. The movement of water is typically upward and against gravity due to the cohesion and adhesion properties of water molecules within the xylem vessels.
Does the xylem transport water up or down the plant?
Yes, xylem vessels carry water through the plant.
What part of the plant carries water through the stem?
The vascular tissue xylem carries water from the roots of the plant to the leaves of the plant via the stem of the plant.
Why do you water the roots of plant rather than the leaves or other organs?
you water the roots rather than leaves and other organs because when u water the roots it makes the plant grow but if you water the leaves the plant wont grow. you water the roots rather than leaves and other organs because when u water the roots it makes the plant grow but if you water the leaves the plant wont grow.
Do xylem travel up or down?
Both, it takes water and Carbon Dioxide up and it lets out Oxegen.
What property and water allows it to move up through a plant?
The water didn't go upward from the roots to the plants. It is the roots that absorbed it upward but in a limited number because the plants have cell wall and they have control of the water that was processed in their system.
How is water carried upward from the roots to every part in the plant?
Xylem
What is the property of water to move upward against the gravitational force?
capillary
Which one of the following properties of water is primarily responsible for the ability of trees to draw water up from the roots to the leaves?
The property of water primarily responsible for the ability of trees to draw water up from the roots to the leaves is cohesion. Cohesion allows water molecules to stick together due to hydrogen bonding, creating a continuous column of water in the xylem vessels. This, combined with transpiration (the evaporation of water from leaves), generates a negative pressure that pulls the water upward from the roots.
What lives in water dies in summer and grows with its roots upward?
An iceberg - it "lives" in water, melts in summer, and the visible portion of it grows as it melts, suggesting its roots are actually its base floating under the water.
What direction does the xylem transport water?
The xylem in a plant transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the shoots and leaves. The movement of water is typically upward and against gravity due to the cohesion and adhesion properties of water molecules within the xylem vessels.
What feature or property of water allows plants to draw liquid from their roots?
hydrogen bonding of the water and water potential gradient between the soil and the roots. the process is driven by transpiration of plants
Tubes that pull water up from the roots are called?
Xylem cells are responsible for conducting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant. These specialized cells create a network of tubes that transport water upward, helping plants maintain their shape and structure.
What property of water explains why it can travel to the tops of trees?
Because of its polarity, water has the unique property of being able to creep up thin tubes. Plants in particular take advantage of this property, called capillary action, to get water from the ground. This is how water can reach the tops of trees. :D
How does water travel in a palm tree?
In any tree, water is drawn upward from its roots, through its trunk to the leaves, where evaporation creates plant thirst caused by transpiration: that is, water out & CO2 in.
What is the special property that makes water the universal solvent?
Water's polarity
Does the xylem transport water up or down the plant?
Yes, xylem vessels carry water through the plant.
