Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Transpiration through stomata, creates a water potential within the plant, which in turn, favors the passive water absorption in the roots, which will then be transported throughout the plant by the Xylem.
Detailed explanation-2: -(i) Stoma allows the exchange of gases. Commonly, carbon dioxide is consumed and oxygen is released through stomata during photosynthesis, while oxygen is consumed and carbon dioxide is released through stomata during respiration.
Detailed explanation-3: -Transpiration is the evaporation of water from plants occurring at the leaves while their stomata are open for the passage of CO2 and O2 during photosynthesis.
