Transpiration
Why is transpiration exothermic?
This exothermic process uses energy to break the strong hydrogen bonds between liquid water molecules; the energy used to do so is taken from the leaf...
When does Transpiration take place?
Transpiration occurs during photosynthesis when the stomata open for the passage of carbon dioxide gas. Carbon dioxide is a necessary component of pho...
What part of the leaf enables transpiration to take place?
The part of the leaf that enables transpiration is the stomata. Which part of the leaf does transpiration occur?How does transpiration take place in t...
Is it true that transpiration is a process that occurs in plants and animals?
Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. Water is nece...
Where does transpiration take place?
Transpiration occurs through the stomatal apertures, and can be thought of as a necessary "cost" associated with the opening of the stomata to allow t...
When does transpiration happen?
When the plant opens its stomata to let in carbon dioxide, water on the surface of the cells of the spongy mesophyll and palisade mesophyll evaporates...
How is the transpiration stream important to plants and animals?
The transpiration stream is important because: It carries water for photosynthesis to the mesophyll cells: the upper layer of cells where photosynthes...
