Expert Solution

Step 1

Transpiration is the process by which plants lose water vapor through the small pores on the surface of their leaves, stems, and other aerial parts. This process is driven by the flow of water from the soil through the plant and out into the air. The water evaporates from the leaf surface into the air, creating a flow of water from the roots to the leaves, which is called the transpiration stream.

This process is driven by a number of factors, including temperature, humidity, wind speed, and the plant's physiological characteristics.
