D) transpiration pull theory
Correct Answer: D

Cohesion-tension theory for ascent of sap was originally proposed by Dixon and Jolly (1894) and greatly supported and elaborated by Dixon (1914, 1924). It is also called transpiration pull theory and is based on the assumptions of Continuous water column from root hairs to the tip of the plant. Cohesive and adhesive properties of water molecules.
