a) The direction of flow of water and the specific dicot plant structures and tissues through which water and dissolved minerals move from the soil, through the plant to the air.
b) Indicate the biological processes whereby water and dissolved minerals move from the soil into roots as well as the role of the endodermis in controlling movement into the stele.
c) Indicate whether water is under pressure as it is transported upward
