Plants transport water from their roots to their leaves through a process called transpiration. Transpiration occurs as a result of gas exchange through stomata in the leaves. Water is replaced as it leaves the leaves through transpiration by being pulled up from the roots through the xylem. The cohesive properties of water and the rigid structure of the xylem vessels allow water to move efficiently through the plant under tension. Tension forces generated in the leaves by transpiration pull water up from t
