Water is a polar molecule due to the fact that its positive and negative charges are distributed unevenly. It’s the atomic nucleus that gives the positive charge, and the negative charge comes from the electrons. Polarity is determined …show more content…
From that, plants gain fluids and nutrients from their roots. A plants leaf contains veins, which is where the nutrients and hormones travel to reach the cells in the leaf. All the carbohydrates pass through the phloem. The phloems (phloem is the living tissue that transports the soluble organic compounds made during photosynthesis and known as photosynthates,)main function it to keep the cells passing by nourished and also hydrated. Inside the cells roots mineral, has a higher concentration than thee is in the soil surrounding plants. Froom that root pressure occurs, forcing the water through the root into the xylem(a compound tissue in vascular plants, it helps provide support and conducts water, and nutrients, up the roots), while water and minerals are getting pulled into the root from the soil. From that guttation(droplets of water from a plant) occurs which are tiny droplets on the end of leaves or grass that happens early in the …show more content…
Water helps plant have nutrients, throughout the plant. The water also fills up the plants cells so it can stand straight which helps the plant. The water gets absorbed from the soil into the roots of plant. The water must move upward, to reach the leaves which is where photosynthesis happens. The water flows through the xylem which is like a tube through the stem and leaves. To go up the stem the water goes through a process all capillary action. Capillary action lets the water get pulled up the tubes since the water molecules are attracted to the molecules that cover the tube. The water at the top gets sucked up the tube(tube is kind of like the stem) followed by the water at the bottom. Transpiration is a process plant use when they have extra water. To get rid of the water, the water evaporates into holes in the surfaces of the leaves into air to evaporate. From those two process lets the water go up the plants stem into the
