Summary Introduction
To describe: The pathway of water movement in plants.
Introduction: Water is the most crucial factor for a plant to perform its normal cellular functions. The water is absorbed by the roots. The movement of water from the roots to the leaves can be explained using cohesion tension theory of water transport.
