Detailed explanation-1: -Transpiration occurs when plants take up liquid water from the soil and release water vapor into the air from their leaves.
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: -Transpiration is the process by which moisture is carried through plants from roots to small pores on the underside of leaves, where it changes to vapour and is released to the atmosphere. It is essentially evaporation of water from plant leaves.
Detailed explanation-4: -Plants release water into the atmosphere through the process of transpiration.
Detailed explanation-5: -(e) False. Transpiration is the loss of water from the aerial parts of the plant.
