Given ahead is the diagram of an experimental set up to study the process of transpiration in plants. Study the same and then answer the question that follow:

After about half an hour what change, if any, would you expect to find in the cobalt chloride paper placed on the dorsal and ventral sides of the leaf? Give a reason to support your answer.
The apparatus shown in the following diagram is Garreau’s potometer designed to demonstrate unequal transpiration from the two surfaces of a dorsiventral leaf. Before keeping the leaf in between the cups, anhydrous calcium chloride (CaCl2) contained in two small vials were weighed and placed in both the cups. The ends of the cups were closed with corks through which two mercury manometers were connected. After few hours, CaCl2 vials were taken out and weighed again.

Write a short note on lenticular transpiration.
The given figure represents an experiment:

- Leaf A was coated with grease on both surfaces.
- Leaf B was coated with grease on the lower surface.
- Leaf C was coated with grease on the upper surface.
- Leaf D was left without any application of grease. All four leaves A, B, C and D were left in a room for about 24 hours.
- Which leaf dries first? Give reason.
