Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Capillary action draws water up within the xylem. Cohesion-tension pulls water up the xylem.
Detailed explanation-2: -The suction force (negative pressure) created by transpiration from the leaves’ surface draws water from the soil and roots through the xylem. Water is sucked up as a result of the xylem vessel. Due to the appearance of capillary action, transpirational pull moves water from roots to leaves.
