The phloem and xylem are the main tissues responsible for this movement. Water potential, evapotranspiration, and stomatal regulation influence how water and nutrients are transported in plants. To understand how these processes work, we must first understand the energetics of water potential.

It highlights the necessity of replacing lost water via xylem transport from roots and notes the benefits of transpiration, such as aiding photosynthesis and cooling. Environmental factors like light, temperature, humidity, wind, and soil water availability influence transpiration rates.

ABA is essential for various stress responses, including closing stomata during drought, protecting against dehydration, and regulating seed dormancy. It aids in root growth, leaf, and fruit abscission, and influences seedling growth and apical dominance by inhibiting lateral bud development, underscoring its importance for plant survival in challenging environments.

Water is found as a liquid on the surface (rivers, lakes, oceans) and beneath the surface (groundwater), as ice (polar ice caps and glaciers), and as water vapor in the atmosphere. Water reservoirs are the locations where water is stored. The hydrologic cycle describes how water moves around the world between different reservoirs and forms.
