Solution

The correct option is B Leaves
Transpiration is a commonly observed process in plants. It refers to the release of water in the form of water vapour from the surface of plants. In plants, transpiration occurs through aerial parts of the plants, i.e. leaves, stems, flowers, fruits. Stomata are small openings present on the surface of the leaves and the release of water vapour occurs through them. About 85-90% of transpiration in plants occur through stomata in leaves.
So the correct answer is option C.
