Solution

The correct option is B Potometre
Potometre, also known as transpirometre is a device used for measuring the rate of water uptake by a plant. The instrument is setup in such a way that the water uptake is approximately equal to the rate of water lost by the plant. In this way, it helps us to calculate the rate of water loss from the leaves of plants.
