What is it called when plants loose water from their leaves?
perspiration
What do plants do in the process of transpiration?
Transpiration is the process by which moisture is carried through plants from roots to small pores on the underside of leaves, where it changes to vapor and is released to the atmosphere. Transpiration is essentially evaporation of water from plant leaves. Transpiration also includes a process called guttation, which is the loss of water in liquid form from the uninjured leaf or stem of the plant, principally through water stomata.
Do snowball bushes loose leaves in the fall?
no
What are some examples of dioecious plants?
any trees that loose their leaves in autumn/winter... eg oak, beech, eucalyptus etc etc Such plants are DECIDUOUS, not dioecious. Dioecious plants are those which have male and female flowers on separate plants, e.g. Holly and Hemp. Edited answer: Plants having male and female sex organs on seperate plants are called dioecious such as Cycas, Encephalartus, Dioon, Zamia and macrozamia etc.
Why transpiration is a price paid for photosynthesis?
Okay, for plants to gain energy they break down sunlight through their cells in the way that is called photosynthesis. However, to do this, cells must keep their leaves open and faced towards the sunlight. Transpiration is like us sweating: we loose water in the process to cool down. The heat, air pressure, and solar radiation contribute to this. Because plants need energy, they have to open up and allow transpiration to happen. While they loose water, they gain energy. They just soak up more water from the ground. That is another reason why, if it is in a drought, that plants wither and die. They not only don't have enough water to keep themselves "fed" but the air is soaking up water when they gain energy.

Why do plants loose more water than it is absorbing from the soil?
Plants loose more water than they absorb from the soil due to a process called transpiration. is the evaporation of water into the atmosphere from the leaves and stems of plants. Plants absorb water through their roots and this water can originate from deep in the soil. (For example, corn plants have roots that are 2.5 meters deep, while some desert plants have roots that extend 20 meters into the ground). Plants pump the water up from the soil to deliver nutrients to their leaves. This pumping is driven by the evaporation of water through small pores called stomates, which are found on the undersides of leaves. Transpiration accounts for approximately 10% of all evaporating water.Read more: Why_do_plants_loose_more_water_than_it_is_absorbing_from_the_soil
Why do deciduous plants loose their leaves in autumn?

Autumn which is also called "fall" because the leaves fall from the trees.
What is living in the deciduous forest?
