Question

Droplets of water may sometimes be seen along the margins of the leaves of a banana plant, growing in wet soil, in the mornings. Are these dew drops? Comment upon your answer.​

Answer 1

$\huge\boxed{\fcolorbox{black}{pink} {ANSWER }}$

The leaves of certain plants exhibit droplets of water along their margins in the morning. This particularly happens in plants growing in warm humid conditions. A humid environment hampers transpiration while the roots continue to absorb water from the soil. This builds up a big hydrostatic pressure within the plant and “forces out” the excess water directly from the tips of veins in the leaf. Special pore-bearing structures called hydathodes are present on the margins of the leaf to allow this exudation.

Hope it helps:)
