Open in App
Solution

Transpiration is the process by which the water is released into the atmosphere (in the form of water vapours) from the leaves of the plants through stomata.
Stomata creates a suction force that causes the water to rise from the roots and reach the topmost branches of the trees. A major amount of water is utilised in the process of photosynthesis while the excess of water is released from the leaves by the process of transpiration; this in turn makes the roots to absorb more water from the soil.
