Week 4

Water Transportation

The process of water transportation is the way water moves through a plant.

The roots absorb water from the soil.

The stem transports water to the leaves.

Water evaporates from the leaves.

This evaporation causes more water to be sucked up the stem.

The water is sucked up the stem like water being sucked up through a straw

TASK

Draw a diagram to show how water is transported in a plant.

Challenge

If you have any book on plants or access to the internet research water transportation.
