The energy coming from the sun to the earth's surface is called solar energy. most of it is in the form of electromagnetic radiation from the visible wavelengths. another wavelength that reaches earth's surface is responsible for sunburn, skin cancer, and is the reason why we wear cool sunglasses. what is this type of electromagnetic radiation?

By water evaporation from the leaves is created a negative pressure at the top of the tree that promotes the ascension  of the water through channels that are called xylem. there are also two molecule forces that are involved: the intra-water molecules cohesion (water molecules stick to each other) and the adhesion when the water molecules stick to the channels they are running in. this is what enables water to go from the roots to the top of a tall tree.

Yes yes yes very good
