25 Questions
Transpiration occurs in the roots of plants.
False
Transpiration and evaporation are two separate processes.
False
Evaporation in plants only happens at night.
False
Transpiration is the primary process responsible for water loss in plants.
True
Transpiration is essential for the cooling of plants.
True
Transpiration is a process carried out by animals to get rid of excess water.
False
The water vapor released through transpiration comes from the soil.
True
Stomata are large openings on the surface of plant leaves that help in transpiration.
False
Transpiration accounts for about 50% of the water vapor in the air.
False
Transpiration occurs exclusively during the night when the plant is resting.
False
Transpiration can only be observed in a plant when it is kept in the dark with a plastic bag wrapped around the stem.
False
Covering the roots of a plant with a plastic bag can enhance transpiration.
False
Transpiration is a process that helps plants cool down during hot weather.
True
Transpiration is a process that only occurs during the night.
False
Increased humidity in the air can decrease the rate of transpiration in plants.
True
Transpiration is the process by which a plant gains water through pores on the leaves called stomata.
False
Stomata are the pores on the leaves through which water vapor is released during transpiration.
True
Transpiration is an internal process that occurs within the roots of a plant.
False
During transpiration, plants release water vapor in the form of liquid droplets through stomata.
False
The excess water lost during transpiration helps in cooling the plant and transporting nutrients throughout its structure.
True
Monitoring of photosynthesis can be observed by wrapping a small plant in plastic bag under the sun.
True
The process of photosynthesis cannot be monitored through a plastic-covered small plant exposed to sunlight.
False
Enclosing a small plant in a plastic bag inhibits the observation of photosynthesis under sunlight.
False
It is impossible to study photosynthesis by covering a small plant with a plastic bag and exposing it to sunlight.
False
Observing photosynthesis is hindered when a small plant is shielded from sunlight using a plastic bag.
False
