How do plants remove excess water?


Open in App
Solution

Absorption of water by the plants:

  • Plants have roots that absorb the water from the soil.
  • The root hairs transport the water from the soil to the plants.
  • The root hairs are water-loving in nature, so they go deep down the earth to search for water.

Transpiration:

  • When the water becomes excess for the plant body, the plants need to get rid of the extra water.
  • Transpiration is the release of water from the stomatal openings of the leaves through the evaporation process.
  • Excess water in plants is lost in the water vapor form.
