can someone explain transpiration ?
and the functoin on phloem?
Thank You
transpiration is when the plant loses water throgh the leaves in the form of water vapour
it is reduced due to presence of the waxy cuticle but can not be stopped
their are 5 factors affecting transpiration
1-humidity
2-temperature
3-stomata
4-light intensity
5-surafce area
phloem is made of livivg cells arranged end to end with cross walls wid pores
it has nucleus and cytoplasm
its main function is the transport of sugars in the form of sucrose from ares of manufacture to areas of utilization
hope this helps
