Inter-vertebral discs separate vertebrae from one another. They are cushion-like discs which absorb the shock the body experience during movement and prevent the vertebrae from grinding against one another.

Answer:

1) pathway taken by water

water is absorbed from the soil, through the root hair cells and is transported by the xylem vessel up the stem to the leaf and/or flowers. From the leaf, some water is lost to the atmosphere as vapors escape out through the stoma present in the lower epidermal layer of the leaves.

2) water potential gradient

water potential refers to the concentration of water present. A gradient forms when there is a difference between the concentrations of water in two regions separated by a partially permeable membrane.

Hence, water moving down a water potential gradient means that it goes from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential.

3) There are tiny openings on the lower side of the leaves called as stomata (plural: stoma) that allow for gaseous exchange to occur. These openings are controlled by guard cells which are open during the day and close during the night.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
