Vedclass · Answer

(C) The Cohesion-Tension theory,also known as the Transpiration Pull theory,explains the ascent of sap in plants. This theory was proposed by $Dixon$ and $Jolly$ in $1894$. It suggests that the evaporation of water from the leaves (transpiration) creates a negative pressure (tension) in the xylem,which pulls the water column upwards due to the cohesive and adhesive properties of water molecules.
