QuestionAnswer
Photosynthesis the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct.
Respiration The process of respiration in plants involves using the sugars produced during photosynthesis plus oxygen to produce energy for plant growth. In many ways, respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis. ... As with photosynthesis, plants get oxygen from t
Transpiration Transpiration: The release of water from plant leaves Plants put down roots into the soil to draw water and nutrients up into the stems and leaves. Some of this water is returned to the air by transpiration.
Plants lose water through their leaves through evaporation. The other water is used in photosynthesis. Transpiration
To release water, The guard cells open up the stomata so water can evaporate. Plants must control the amount of water they lose through leaves or they would wither and die. Transpiration
As one water molecule evaporates out of the stomata, the one behind it is pulled up. This creates a water chain or train. Plants slow down transpiration by closing stomata (pores) on the underside of the leaves. Transpiration
As water is released from the leaves it gets pulled up from the roots and carried through the plant keeping it cool and providing nutrients. Water from the roots contains minerals from parent rock and dissolved nutrients from humus. Guard cells op Transpiration
plants consume nutrients to keep plant cells alive while during photosynthesis, plants create their own food. Respiration
process in plants when sugars are used or metabolized (burned or turned into energy) for growth, repairs and reproduction. These sugars are gained from photosynthesis. The process occurs during the day time and night time. It involves taking in oxygen and Plant respiration
