Solution
The correct option is D Trasnspiration Transpiration is the process by which moisture or water 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. Transfusion and translocation do not involve the loss of water.
