Neither. Dew is a result of condensation. As the air cools in the evening, it is less able to stay as humid, so the drops of water condense on the leaves.

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 is transpiration related to the process of photosynthesis?

Transpiration is the process by which plants release water vapor through their leaves. This process helps plants absorb nutrients and minerals from the soil. In turn, photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy, requires water to take place. Therefore, transpiration plays a crucial role in providing the water necessary for photosynthesis to occur.


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.


How does the number of stomata affect photosynthesis and transpiration?

The stomata are surrounded by guard cell which are tasked with the graduated opening and closing of the stomata. So, wide ope much carbon dioxide is diffusing into the cells and the rate of photosynthesis is high, but as the stomata work their way towards the closed position the rate of photosynthesis slows down until it can stop completely with no diffusion of CO2 through the closed stomata.


How is transpiration related to photosynthesis in plants?

Transpiration is the process by which plants release water vapor through their leaves. This process helps to create a negative pressure in the plant, allowing water to be drawn up from the roots to the leaves. This water is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy. Without transpiration, there would be no water available for photosynthesis to occur, making it a crucial link between the two processes in plants.

Does transpiration effect dew on grass?

Absolutely. Air which is close to the ground cools overnight. While the air is cooling, the relative humidity is increasing until it reaches the dew point and water is released. Transpiration can also cause the dew point to be reached by increasing the relative humidity. This is why there is much more dew on the grass than on pavement.

How is transpiration different from photosynthesis?

Transpiration is loosing water in vapor form.Photosynthetis makes glucose using CO2


What leaf structure is related to both photosynthesis and transpiration?

The stomata are structures on a leaf that relate to both photosynthesis and transpiration. The stomata facilitate gas exchange so the carbon dioxide can enter and the oxygen can leave. However, water vapor can also leave through a process called transpiration.


Where does transpiration?

Transpiration is when water evaporates from plants. It occurs chiefly in the leaves while their stomata are open during photosynthesis.


What does transpiration do?

Transpiration is the process where plants carry water from the roots to the rest of the plant,including the leaf, to be used in photosynthesis.

What function do the leaves perform?

Photosynthesis, gaseous exchange and transpiration etc.


Do forests and lakes affect the dew point?

Yes. Forests and lakes put water vapor into the air via transpiration and evaporation respectively. This raises the dew point.


Why is Transpiration essential to photosynthesis?

Transpiration is essential to photosynthesis because it helps maintain the water flow through the plant, allowing nutrients and water to be transported to the leaves where photosynthesis occurs. It also cools the plant and creates a negative pressure that helps draw water and nutrients from the soil. Without transpiration, photosynthesis would be limited due to a lack of water and nutrients reaching the leaves.
