What structures does water escape through during transpiration?

Transpiration produces a tension or pull on the water in the xylem vessels by the leaves. Water molecules are cohesive so water is pulled through the plant .

Transpiration is the evaporation of water at the surfaces of the spongy mesophyll cells in leaves, followed by loss of water vapour through the stomata . Transpiration produces a tension or 'pull' on the water in the xylem vessels by the leaves. Water molecules are cohesive so water is pulled up through the plant.
