The video first defines transpiration as the loss of water from the surface of a plant and describes how leaves lose water vapor through stomata, which are openings found in the leaves that allow gases to move in and out. The video then explains how water is drawn up through the Xylem, which is the transport tissue found in plants, and how this creates a transpiration pull, causing more water to be drawn into the roots from the soil. Finally, the video discusses root hair cells and how they absorb water from the soil using the process of osmosis. \n
