Detailed explanation-1: -It is the evaporation of water from the stomata of the plants. Most of the water from the plants is transpired this way. The water near the surface of the leaves changes into vapour and evaporates when the stomata are open.
Detailed explanation-2: -Transpiration. The loss of excess water by diffusion through the stomata of leaves of a plant into the atmosphere is called transpiration. It pulls water up from the roots to different parts of the plant.
Detailed explanation-3: -Transpiration is the evaporation of water in the form of water vapour from plants. It occurs chiefly at the leaves while their stomata are open for the passage of CO2 and O2 during photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Transpiration is the loss of water through stomata, so, more stomata are found on the lower surface to prevent excessive loss of water. As the lower surface of leaf is not directly exposed to sun, rate is transpiration is low from the lower surface. Q.
