The question is not very clear but I assume it is regarding the process. If so, it is called transpiration and is carried out through stomata (little pores on the leaves). These pores also facilitate respiration.

What plant has tiny leaves that reduce the amount of water lost through transpiration?

The guard cell prevents water loss in leaves.


What happens to water that is transported to the leaves of a plant?

a little of it gets used up for photosynthesis (about 1%), while most of the rest is evaporated into the air to enable the continuous flow of water through the plant with which it can gather disulved nutrients


Do plants produce food when they have no light?

Yes, plants need water in order to make their own food. This is because water is one of the reactants, or things that go into, the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert energy from the sun into Glucose, a type of sugar that is later broken down by the plant in ATP, which serves as the energy source for the plants. This secondary process is called cellular respiration. In photosynthesis, water molecules are split by the photons of light from the sun. The splitting of water releases an electron that goes to photosystem II and then goes through many redox reactions. The oxygen released by splitting water forms diatomic (2 atom) oxygen gas, which is released into the atmosphere. A hydrogen ion (positive) is also released when the water is split.


What happens if enough water is not taken in to replace what is lost?

The organism dehydrates. For plants, it can lead to withering of the vital photosynthetic tissues in the leaves and stems, with the core systems trying to survive until more water is available (some will go to dormant stages). For animals, water is vital to the function of organs, and the animal will weaken and die without it.


How do humans lose most of their water?

Water is typically lost through urination and perspiration. A percentage can also be lost it through breathing.

What does the water cycle show about earth's water?

It explains how water is used by animals and plants and that it then is lost by them to the atmosphere. The water in the atmosphere falls as rain into the oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, streams and onto the land that the plants and animals take up again.


What is water lost to the atmosphere by the activities of plant?

transpiration


What is the process by which water is lost from plants?

transpiration


Where is most of the water in plants lost?

palisade layer


The loss of water from plants back into the atmosphere?

The "loss" of water vapor from stoma on the underside of the leaf is called transpiration. Transpiration also provides assistance in the uptake of water by plants, as water is lost through the leaves a low pressure is created within the leaf, assisting with the "suction action" of water being drawn up the vessels in the plant stem (simplified explanation


What substance is lost from the plants during the process of transpiration?

Water.


What percentage of water that a plants takes in is lost in transpiration?

98%


What is the leading theory for Venus' complete lack of water in any form?

It was broken apart into and , which were lost from the atmosphere.


If Mars did have liquid water at one time what happened to it and why?

One popular theory is that when mars lost its atmosphere, the liquid water evaporated into space.


What plant has tiny leaves that reduce the amount of water lost through transpiration?

In a space biosphere a plants water suppy would have to be maintained how would you retrieve the water lost by transpiration?

because the plant has lot of co2


Do plants produce evaporation?

Yes - any water which is drawn up from the roots - and is not used by the plant, is lost to evaporation.
