Plants constantly transpire water through their <a href="/wiki/Stoma" title="Stoma">stomata</a> to the atmosphere and replace that water with soil moisture taken up by their roots. When the stomata are closed at night, water pressure can build up in the plant. Excess water is excreted through pores known as <a href="/wiki/Hydathode" title="Hydathode">hydathodes</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The movement of <a href="/wiki/Water" title="Water">water</a> out of the leaf stomata sets up transpiration pull or tension in the water column in the xylem vessels or tracheids. The pull is the result of water <a href="/wiki/Surface_tension" title="Surface tension">surface tension</a> within the cell walls of the <a href="/wiki/Mesophyll" class="mw-redirect" title="Mesophyll">mesophyll</a> cells, from the surfaces of which evaporation takes place when the stomata are open. <a href="/wiki/Hydrogen_bond" title="Hydrogen bond">Hydrogen bonds</a> exist between water <a href="/wiki/Molecule" title="Molecule">molecules</a>, causing them to line up; as the molecules at the top of the plant evaporate, each pulls the next one up to replace it, which in turn pulls on the next one in line. The draw of water upwards may be entirely passive and can be assisted by the movement of water into the roots via <a href="/wiki/Osmosis" title="Osmosis">osmosis</a>. Consequently, transpiration requires the plant to expend very little energy on water movement. Transpiration assists the plant in absorbing nutrients from the soil as soluble <a href="/wiki/Salts" class="mw-redirect" title="Salts">salts</a>. Transpiration plays an important role in the absorption of nutrients from the soil as soluble salts are transported along with the water from the soil to the leaves. Plants can adjust their transpiration rate to optimize the balance between water loss and nutrient absorption.<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Absorption">Absorption</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Vascular_plant&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Absorption"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Living root cells passively absorb water.
