Solution

The correct option is C Transpiration
Transpiration is essentially similar to the evaporation of water. It is the loss of water in vapour form through stomata. During transpiration water molecules absorb a lot of heat energy, this generates a cooling effect.
Thus, the correct answer is (C).
