Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The water first enters the protoxylem and then into the metaxylem. From xylem, the water moves up and reaches the other plant parts.
Detailed explanation-2: -1-Water is passively transported into the roots and then into the xylem. 2-The forces of cohesion and adhesion cause the water molecules to form a column in the xylem. 3-Water moves from the xylem into the mesophyll cells, evaporates from their surfaces and leaves the plant by diffusion through the stomata.
Detailed explanation-3: -So the correct option is ‘Epidemic-Cortex-Pericycle-endodermis-phloem’.
Detailed explanation-4: -Soil
