Option (b) The spongy mesophyll cells of the leaf make most of the water evaporate during transpiration.
Explanation:
- Transpiration is the process by which water evaporates at the surfaces of the spongy mesophyll cells in leaves.
- This is further followed by the loss of water vapour through the stomata.
- Spongy mesophyll tissue is a loosely packed tissue used for efficient gas exchange.
- These cells are covered by a thin layer of water and the gases need to be exchanged dissolve in it.
- Also, the gases diffuse through small pores called stomata.
