Water begins its journey when it is absorbed by the roots. It travels upward through a specialized tissue called xylem to reach the leaves. Once there, water is lost to the atmosphere through transpiration (evaporation). This loss of water creates a suction force known as transpiration pull, which draws more water up from the soil, transporting essential minerals along with it.
