OK so I hope this is not a question that's dumb or has an obvious answer,
 It may be, but I'm going to ask it anyways I guess.
	My Botany teacher asked us if a dead plant would still conduct
water thru it's xylem. She wouldn't tell us the answer and It's sorta
bugging me. I guess I would say yes, it would for a while. Becuz the xylem
is dead anyways, so I guess the water that was there would transpire out.
I don't know though...
