Solution

The correct option is A Due to transpiration
It occurs due to transpiration. Transpiration is the process by which moisture is carried through plants from roots to small pores on the underside of leaves, where it changes to vapor and is released to the atmosphere. Transpiration is essentially evaporation of water from plant leaves.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
