Detailed explanation-2: -Transpiration, the loss of water vapor from plants, is a physical process that is under control of both external physical and physiological factors.

Detailed explanation-3: -*Transpiration is the evaporation of water from the leaves in the form of water vapour whereas translocation is the transportation of synthesized products (sugars)in a plant. *Transpiration always occurs against the gravity while translocation does not always occur against gravity.
