Sunlight initiates the evaporation of the water co
Sunlight initiates the evaporation of the water coating the mesophyll. This causes an increase in pressure as menisci become increasingly concave and push more water out of xylem, through the mesophyll by symplastic and apoplastic routes, and out stomata in leaves. Cohesive properties of water allow it to be move upward by negative pressure from the roots to the leaves. FTP, name this process that tugs water along xylem throughout green plants.
