Transpiration helps plants in which process?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Pulling water upward
The governing concept is transpiration pull. When water evaporates from leaf surfaces, especially through stomata, it creates tension in the continuous water column inside xylem. This helps draw water and dissolved minerals upward from roots toward leaves, so option A is correct. Digestion, oxygen binding in blood, and urine formation are animal processes and are unrelated to plant transpiration.
