Most accepted theory for ascent of sap is
Most accepted theory for ascent of sap is
Updated On: Jul 13, 2024
- Pulsation theory
- Transpiration pull theory
- Capillary theory
- Root pressure theory
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Transpiration pull cohesion theory for ascent of sap in trees is most widely accepted. This concept was proposed by Dixon and Jolly, 1884. It is based up on three basic assumptions which are cohesion in between water molecules, continuity of water column and transpiration pull.

- An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm pressure = \(1.01 \times 10^5 \text{ N/m}^2\)]
