Should be evaporation and capillary :) But I'll double check

<h2>Two Actions required to work Together to move water to Top of Tall Plant </h2>

Evaporation and capillary action are required to work together to move water to the top of tall plants. Evaporation is a kind of condensation that happens in the form of a liquid as it transforms into the gas state when it approaches its boiling point.

Temperature, surface area and intermolecular forces are the factors which affect evaporation. Capillary action is the capacity of a liquid to move in confined areas without the help of forces, which are provided by outside like gravitational force which is due to earth.

These two phenomena are required to flow water or liquid to the top of tall plants.
