How do baobab trees absorb and store water that travels through passages to the different parts of the tree?

Spongy bark also allows the baobab tree conserve water. The bark of the baobab is more porous than regular wood, making it able to absorb moisture like a sponge. This allows the tree to absorb as much water as possible in times of rain and store it for use during times of scarcity or drought. ~Look it up but hope it helps!
