Question

maclan learnirg Place the steps of they occur, beginning with the opening of the stomata. the cohesion-tension hypothesis of long-distance water movement in the order in whic i Stomata open in leaves. Water enters roots Water enters the root xylem. Water potential is higher inside of the leaf than outside. Tension is created at the air-water interface. Water is pulled out of the xylem into the leaf Water evaporates from mesophyll cell walls within the leaf. Water potential within the leaf lowers. The water column in the xylem is pulled up via capillary action.

Explanation / Answer

Tension is created at the air- water interface.

water potential within the leaf lowers.

water is pulled out of the xylem into the leaf.

The water column in the xylem is pulled up via capillary action.

water enters the root xylem.
