Use the concept of pressure to describe the movement of water and nutrients in plant xylem and phloem and blood in vertebrates. Liquid goes from area of higher pressure to areas of lower pressure.

Water evaporates out of the stomata through transpiration which has low pressure. Sugar sinks have lower pressure moves from high to low pressure. Sugar is loaded into the phloem sugar attracts water lead to higher pressure sugar unloaded at sugar sink water leaves, lower pressure.
