Why is stomata found on the underside of the leaves?
to reduce the high rate of transpiration and it reduce the chances of blockage of stomata by small tiny particles of soil which are present in atmosphere.
Why water lost in transpiration is not constant?
Because there is no consistancy in the rate of transpiration
Why does marram grass have rolled leaves?
To reduce transpiration
Why leaves are absent in cactus?
To protect it from predators in the desert.(: and to reduce the rate of transpiration. In many cases the thorn are formed by the modification of shoot , Thus eliminating the leaves hence the free surface to minimize the transpiration.)
How can trichomes affect the rate of transpiration of the leaves of some plants?
In windy areas trichomes reduce evaporation and keep the leaf moist. They also reflect solar radiation and heat.

What is the operational definition of the rate of transpiration?
The rate of transpiration is the position of air bubble
Why water lost in transpiration is not constant?
Because there is no consistancy in the rate of transpiration
How does high humidity affect transpiration?
High humidity reduces the rate of transpiration.
How does a type of plant affect transpiration?
*stomata -open-increased transpiration -closed-decreased transpiration *consequence of gas exchange -tradeoff of more gas exchange resulting in more transpiration *environmental factors -humidity -air movement -evaporative cooling -wind stress -intense light/heat
Why does marram grass have rolled leaves?
To reduce transpiration
What adaptations would not reduce the rate of transpiration in plants?
If the stomata are at a serious deficiency in sclerenchyma cells, at which point the general diffusion of potassium ions decreases incredibly. This would result in an adaptation that would adversely decrease the chance of a reduction in transpiration rates.
Compare the rate of transpiration from two surfaces of leaf and give reasons?
Compare the rate of transpiration from two surfaces of leaf and give reasons?"
What happens to the rate of photosynthesis during scanty rainfall in the area?
It decreases. To avoid transpiration leaves fold to reduce the surface area and roots penetrate deep inside.

How does Surface area to volume ratio affect the rate of transpiration?
Bigger the SA:V ratio , transpiration sucks.
How can trichomes affect the rate of transpiration of the leaves of some plants?
In windy areas trichomes reduce evaporation and keep the leaf moist. They also reflect solar radiation and heat.
