Water reaches great heights in trees because of suction pull caused by
- Aevaporation
- Babsorption
- Ctranspiration
- DMore than one of the above
- ENone of the above
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (c) transpiration
Explanation
Transpiration is the loss of water vapour through the stomata of leaves, creating a suction pull that draws water upward.
This pull moves water through the xylem to great heights; evaporation and absorption do not generate this transport tension.
