Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In plants, water enters the root cells by osmosis and moves into tubes called xylem vessels to be transported to the leaves.
Detailed explanation-2: -Water enters and leaves cells through osmosis, the passive diffusion of water across a membrane. In plants, water always moves from an area of higher water potential to an area of lower water potential.
Detailed explanation-3: -The process in which water molecules enter the cell is called Endosmosis.It happensdue to presence of hypotonic solution on the outside.
