Transpiration is the process of losing excess amount of water through the stomata in the leaves
Functions
.......................
1. Excess Water removal
The root hairs absorb a large amount of water. Fluid balance inside the plant body is maintained by this process
2. Cooling effect
Exposure to harsh sunlight increases the temperature of the plant cells. By losing excess water, some of the heat is used up.
3. Distribution of mineral salts
When water is lost, the concentration of the cell sap increases. This will ensure that mineral salts are distributed evenly in all the cells by the process of Osmosis.
