Question

Match the process with the structures through which it occurs.

• A. Guttation
• B. Transpiration
• C. Bleeding

Answer 1

Transpiration is evaporation of water from the aerial parts of the plant. It happens through stomata, lenticels and cuticle. Secretion of water from pores called hydathodes is called guttation. When there is a cut in the surface of a plant, the sap comes out. This is called bleeding.
