Explanation:

Transpiration Translocation

Transpiration is the water evaporation in the form of water vapour from the leaves. Transport of the soluble photosynthesis product or food from the leaves to other plant parts is referred to as translocation.

Transpiration always happens against gravity. Translation does not happen against gravity.

Transpiration primarily includes the xylem cells that become effective by the roots during the absorption process. Translocation involves both xylem and phloem cells to carry the synthesized food materials inside the plant.

Transpiration is controlled by osmotic potential
