Plant loses water through the ____
A
roots
B
stomata
C
chlorophyll
D
stem
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Case: Transpiration is the evaporative loss of water by plants. It occurs mainly through the stomata in the leaves. Besides the loss of water vapour in transpiration, exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the leaf also occurs through pores called stomata.

Detailed explanation-3: -Transpiration occurs when plants take up liquid water from the soil and release water vapor into the air from their leaves.

Detailed explanation-4: -Transpiration is the process through which plants lose water through stomata. Stomata are usually present on the underside of the leaves. It is essentially evaporation of water from the leaves of the plants.
