Roots also play an important role in water transport. Which plays the most important role in the movement of water through a plant--the absorption of water by the roots or the evaporation of water from the leaves

plant--the absorption of water by the roots

Explanation: plants root aids the absorption of water and nutrients from the soil. Water is an important constittuents in plants when's its not adequate it could lead to wilting of the plant. Attach to the root is root hair this is what help in absorption of water and nutrients from the soil before it is been transported round the cell by xylem tissue. Water is moved through osmotic pressure from the region of higher concentration to low. The process of photosynthesis in plant requires water without the function of the root for absorption plants cannot actively photosynthesis. Hence root play an important role in water transport in plant .

Transpiration is loss of water from leave surface. The water been loss is
