Name four plant structures that move water from soil to the air above the forest canopy (through a tree). For each named structure, describe how it works to move water into/within/out of the plant. In your answer, focus on how these structures allow a tree to move water high into the air without a mechanical pump; illustrate how this is possible with your answer.
