Question

Write the different types of transpiration in plants.

Answer 1

• Stomatal Transpiration: It takes place through the tiny pores called stomata present on the surface of the leaves, and it accounts for about 80–90% of the total water loss from the plant.
• Cuticular Transpiration: This type of transpiration happens directly through the waxy cuticle layer that covers the epidermis of the leaves and stems.
• Lenticular Transpiration: It occurs through the small, specialized openings known as lenticels which are found on older woody stems.
