Question

Why the rate of trsnspiration differs among plants and animals?

Answer 1

Hi there,

This is because the size of the leaf is different from plants to plants,big size of leaf means more transpiration will occcur because of large surface area while small leaf cause low transpiration..

Thanks

Answer 2

layers increase as leaf size increases, reducing rates of transpiration as well. For example, plants from desert climates often have small leaves so that their small boundary layers will help cool the leaf with higher rates of transpiration. ... Cuticle thickness varies widely among plant species.
