As plants absorb water from the soil, they deplete the soil of water near the surface of the roots, This depletion due to

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. increases Hydrostatic pressure (ψp) in the water near the root surface
  2. establishes a pressure gradient with respect to neighboring regions of soil that have higher ψp values
  3. increase Hydrostatic pressure(ψp) in the water near the root surface
