Plants release water into the atmosphere through a process known as
A
perspiration
B
assimilation
C
transpiration
D
nitrification
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Evapotranspiration also includes transpiration, which is the water movement from the soil to the atmosphere via plants. Transpiration occurs when plants take up liquid water from the soil and release water vapor into the air from their leaves.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Water at the surface of the ocean, rivers, and lakes can become water vapor and move into the atmosphere with a little added energy from the Sun through a process called evaporation.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plants release large amounts of water vapour into the atmosphere by the process called transpiration.
