What plant organ carries on transpiration?

Transpiration mainly occurs through stomata on the leaves of plants. Stomata are small openings on the underside of leaves that allow water vapor to escape from the plant. So, leaves are the primary plant organ involved in transpiration.


Why do some plants have small leaves and some have big leaves thank you?

because they just do Plants with small leaves live in extreme environments. Some plants have big leaves to make photosynthesis easier for the plant probably because it lives somewhere shady. Plants with small leaves have lots of light so big leaves are not required. The bigger the leaf the bigger the surface area so big and small leaves collect the same amount of light. **Edit** Additionally a big factor that stresses effective leaf sizing is the amount of atmospheric moisture and heat. Some plants will fix carbon in the night time, reducing the amount of water loss they experience through the stomata, but others do not: as they intake CO2, they also lose water due to the heat. Hence a cactus's leaves are thin needles. Doesn't allow for a lot of CO2 fixation (so slow growth), but there's very little evaporation, so they don't die easily. It's a tradeoff for many plants.
