What Is
Transpiration?
         Transpiration is the
         process whereby
         water, that is absorbed
         by plants, usually
         through the roots, are
         evaporated into the
         atmosphere from the
         leaves of the plant.
Transpiration plays a very important role as it allows the
plant to receive key nutrients and minerals. By this
process, the plant will be able to absorb more water
from its roots, allowing a constant flow of water to take
place.
Transpiration pull only works
in plants and trees because
their stems contain bundles
of many very fine tubes,
made of woody material,
called xylem.
The transpiration process begins at the
surface of the leaves of the plant or tree.
Water continually evaporates from the
pores of the leaf and is lost into the
atmosphere. This evaporation causes
million of minutely small droplets of water
to form inside the pores. Thus, this causes
transpirational pull.
