Question

multiple choice question
what type of gradient enables transport from roots to shoots in the xylem?
o lon potential
o water potential

Explanation:

In plants, water movement in the xylem from roots to shoots occurs due to a water - potential gradient. Water moves from an area of higher water potential (roots) to an area of lower water potential (shoots). Ion potential is not the primary gradient for this long - distance transport in xylem.

Answer:

Water potential
