Question
what contributes to water transport in plants? high heat capacity solvency cohesion and adhesion high surface tension
Brief Explanations
Cohesion allows water molecules to stick together, and adhesion allows water to stick to the walls of plant vessels. This combination enables water - column continuity and upward movement in plants. High heat capacity, solvency, and high surface tension are important properties of water but do not directly contribute to water transport in plants.
