Solution

The correct option is B Potometer
Potometer is an instrument for measuring the rate of transpiration by shoots through measuring the rate of their water absorption, as the two are nearly equal. There are several types of potometers e.g., Ganong's potometer, Farmers potometer, Bose's potometer, Simple or Darwin potometer.
