Question
Describe the journey of a water molecule. Begin with it as water in the soil, and end with it as water vapor in the air outside a leaf. Describe a) the structures through which the water molecule moves, and b) the reason it moves during the different parts of the process.

Follow-up Question
Is the water also used in the phototsynthesis in the leaves, like are some of the H ions used in the Electron transport chain? Or is it purely transpired?
