The sets of tubes that carry water up the trunk of a tree are called xylem. Xylem consists of specialized cells that transport water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the leaves. This process is essential for the tree's growth and overall health, as it helps in photosynthesis and nutrient distribution.

Why does the trunk of a 1999 Saturn sc fill with water after rain?

I am guessing that you have a sunroof...if so the drain tubes pass through the trunk compartment and actually couple together on both sides of the trunk. If you pull the trim back from the rear corners of the trunk, right next to the taillights, you should see the tubes. Good luck!!! If you are getting water in there and there isn't a sunroof, it might be a good idea to get it into a dealer!!
