what is transpiration
loss of water vapour from leaves
what is the rate of transpiration influenced by
size, and numbers of stomata
how does water molecules diffuse
water molecules diffuse from the air spaces through the stomata down concentration gradient
how does water evaporates
water evaporates from the surface of the mesophyll cells into the air spaces and the diffusers out of the leaves through the stomata as water vapour
what is the effect on the rate of transpiration
temperature, wind,speed,and humidity
what are the 2 types of investigate of rates
-mass photometer
- a Bubble photometer
