Detailed explanation-1: -Answer. It is the loss of water as vapour from plants. Reason: Transpiration is the loss of water in the form of water vapours from aerial parts of the plant such as stems, leaves and flowers.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Bleeding is not related to transpiration.
Detailed explanation-4: -Transpiration is the evaporation of water from plants, especially leaves. It is a type of translocation and part of the water cycle. The amount of water lost by a plant depends on its size, the light intensity, temperature, humidity, wind speed, and soil water supply.
