Transpiration and Translocation

Transpiration is the process by which plants give out excess water in the form of water vapour. It can be of three types:

1)Stomatal Transpiration

2)Lenticular Transpiration

3)Cuticular Transpiration

'The water is lost from the aerial parts of the plant.
'It takes place in day and night.



Translocation is the process by which minerals absorbed by the roots and carbohydrates prepared by the leaves are dissolved in water and transported in the form of solution.

'Phloem transports the nutrients during Translocation.
