- Water is collected from the roots of the plants and travels up the stem.
- The root has a big surface area so the root can absorb a lot of water.
- Water enters through the epidermis of the roots.
- Even though there is no water, minerals enter freely.
- In the plant through osmosis water moves from a dilute to a concentrated region.
