What is transpires?

Transpiration is the evaporation of cellular water (in the form of water vapour) from the stoma in the leaves of the plants. Stoma are "pores" and are generally located on the underside of the leaves of plants.Water accumulating in the leaves of the plants is lost as water vapor through the process of transpiration, this is similar to the process of sweating in animals.Transpiration accomplishes two things, it does cool the leaves slightly through evaporative cooling, it also causes what is referred to as "evaporative draw" or "evaporative suction", this causes a slight low pressure in the leaves where the water is evaporating from, this provides a slight suction force assisting with water being drawn up the stem of the plant.I

Yes, each fall sugar maples (and other deciduous trees) remove the chlorophyll and other important compounds and nutrients from their leaves (which causes the other colors to become visible) and then drop the leaves.


Why do plants leaves become yellow?

They have a magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is a mineral that is important in making chlorophyll (the green pigment that makes leaves green.) So a lack of it means that the leaves go yellow.


What do you called on the process of making food of the leaves?

Leaves have a large surface area, in order to maximise the area available to utilise chlorophyll. On the top they are quite dry but underneath they are waxy. This serves to minimise water loss when the stomata close or open. Also, the chlorophyll (which gives leaves their colour) will react with carbon dioxide and water to create starch and other sugars.
