    The removal of bark (girdling) from a tree does not interfere with the ascent of water from the roots to the leaves. A tree that has had bark removed in a ring will continue living for the rest of the season, showing that water can still ascend without the bark. Girdling a tree does not prevent water from moving up through the tree.

    Does the removal of bark interfere with the ascent of water? Explain why or why not.

    A tree that is girdled (that is, one that has a ring of bark removed) will continue to

    live for the rest of the season. This shows that the removal of the bark does not interfere

    with the ascent of water from the roots to the leaves.
