उत्तर
- Guttation is the process by which plants exude liquid water droplets from the edges or tips of their leaves.
- It usually occurs at night or early morning when soil moisture is high and transpiration is low.
- Water is forced out due to root pressure, not evaporation.
- Guttation is not the same as dew, which forms from atmospheric moisture.
- It typically occurs in small herbaceous plants, like grasses and strawberries.
