Transpiration _______.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transpiration is the process by which water evaporates from leaves, creating a negative pressure that pulls more water up from the roots. This process relies on openings in the leaves called stomata, which allow for the exchange of gases and water vapor. The central vacuole is not directly involved in transpiration, but it does play a role in regulating the water potential of the plant cells. Therefore, the best choice is D, as it includes the two correct statements about the process of transpiration.
