Key Points

  • Stomata
    • In leaves transpiration takes place through stomata.
    • The little apertures known as stomata are found on the epidermis of leaves.
    • Stomata are visible under a light microscope.
    • Stomata can be found on the stems and other portions of various plants.
    • In gaseous exchange and photosynthesis, stomata are crucial. Via opening and closing, they regulate the rate of transpiration.

Additional Information

  • Transpiration
    • Water is lost from the aerial regions of plants in the form of water vapour through a biological process called transpiration.
    • Like all other living things, plants need an excretory system to remove extra water from their bodies.
    • Transpiration is the term for this process of removing extra water from the body of the plant. Typically, it is the evaporation of water from the leaf surface.
    • The plants only use a small portion of the water they absorb for growth and development
