Detailed explanation-2: -The phloem and xylem are the main tissues responsible for this movement. Water potential, evapotranspiration, and stomatal regulation influence how water and nutrients are transported in plants.
Detailed explanation-3: -In plants, vascular tissue named xylem transports water and minerals from roots to shoots and leaves. Transportation of water takes place through tracheids and vessels, the dead cells of xylem.
