The process by which water evaporates out of a leaf is called ____
A
Transpiration
B
Absorption
C
Transport
D
Vascular tissue
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The water eventually is released to the atmosphere as vapor via the plant’s stomata-tiny, closeable, pore-like structures on the surfaces of leaves. Overall, this uptake of water at the roots, transport of water through plant tissues, and release of vapor by leaves is known as transpiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Transpiration occurs when plants take up liquid water from the soil and release water vapor into the air from their leaves.

Detailed explanation-3: -Transpiration is a process that involves loss of water vapour through the stomata of plants. The loss of water vapour from the plant cools the plant down when the weather is very hot, and water from the stem and roots moves upwards or is ‘pulled’ into the leaves.

Detailed explanation-4: -This process of evaporation of water from leaves is called transpiration.

Detailed explanation-5: -Transpiration is just a subset of the evaporation process. For more information regarding the Transpiration and Evaporation, visit BYJU’S.
