Question

Write any one important function of transpiration.

Answer 1

Transpiration:

• The process of removing water from plants through openings, like stomata and lenticels, is known as transpiration.

Function:

• Transpiration helps in the movement of water molecules from the roots to the upper part of the plants. The removal of water molecules generates a transpiration pull in the xylem tissue allowing the water to move upward.
• The removal of water from plants also helps to cool the leaves, thus protecting them from wilting during sunlight.
