and continues to move down the water potential gradient until it reaches a pit. The water then moves through the pit and into the xylem vessel and up towards the leaves. The mechanisms ’in charge’ of the movement of water within the xylem is transpiration pull. This is where the water which is evaporating (as water vapour) through the stomata in the leaves is pulling the water at the bottom of the plant (roots and bottom of xylem) up towards the leaves. This is a passive process (as described above)

and go in a hurry. The earth has a limited amount of water‚ that keeps going around and around and around and around and (you get the idea) in what is called the "Water Cycle". This cycle is made up of a few main parts: • evaporation (and transpiration) • condensation • precipitation • collection Evaporation: Evaporation is when the sun heats up water in rivers or lakes or the ocean and turns it into vapor or steam. The water vapor or steam leaves the river‚ lake or ocean and goes into

This is known as an adaptation‚ (leaves in the centre of a shrub are exposed to small amounts of light meaning they have little of stoma because if they had many then they would lose lots of water (by transpiration). Leafs must grow the correct amount of stoma (for gas exchange/water loss) to the light levels in an area (even if they are shaded) this gives them a balance. Method: 1.
