But high velocity winds decrease the rate of transpiration due to their cooling effect.

How does type of plant affect transpiration?
i dont no. thats what i need to no.
What is the loss of water through a plant's leaves is called?
Evaporation of water through the plant's leaves is called transpiration.
How does transpiration form?
transpiration can't form it is the process of a plant.
How does pH affect the rate of transpiration of a plant and why?
Stomata open in the presence of bases and close in the presence of acids. Therefore, the rate of transpiration is higher in bases due to that they are losing more water through their open stomata.
What are the differences between transpiration and translocation?
transpiration is the evaporation of water through leaves and stem. translocation is the transport of sugars in a plant. Translocation- movement of food and nutrients in the plant Transpiration- loss of water through leaves via stomates

What is the loss of water through a plant's leaves is called?
Evaporation of water through the plant's leaves is called transpiration.
The evaporation of water from plants is called what?
Transpiration. During the day, water is constantly evaporating from the plant, mainly through leaf stomata. The large amount of water lost from the plant is a result of the plant's need to obtain carbon dioxide from the air.
What is the most likely affect on the plant if the guard cells stay swollen on a hot day?
Increase intherate of transpiration
What is the plant organ that carries transpiration called?
Plant organ carrying transpiration is called stomata
How does transpiration form?
transpiration can't form it is the process of a plant.
What affect does drought have on the rate of transpiration?
Water supply: If water is in short supply, then the plant will close its stomata. This will cut down the rate of transpiration. Transpiration decreases when the water supply decreases below a certain level.
How is Transpiration done?
Transpiration occurs as water moves through a plant and evaporates from the aerial parts, such as stems, leaves, and flowers. Transpiration helps to cool the plant and bring minerals from the roots up to the top of the plant.
How does light affect the gradient of water potential of a plant leaf?
Transpiration regulates how much water moves through the plant. In hot dry air, more water will evaporate out of the stomates resulting in a higher transpiration rate. Light, or temperature, can therefore increase transpiration. Wind will evaporate more water from the leaf's boundary layer resulting in a higher transpiration rate. Humidity or moisture will lower transpiration because less water will evaporate out of the stomates.
How does pH affect the rate of transpiration of a plant and why?
Stomata open in the presence of bases and close in the presence of acids. Therefore, the rate of transpiration is higher in bases due to that they are losing more water through their open stomata.
How does high humidity affect transpiration?
High humidity reduces the rate of transpiration.
What molecules represent transpiration?
Water (H2O). Transpiration is like the plant form of sweating.
