Transpiration refers to the physiological process by which plants lose water vapor to the atmosphere. This term encompasses both the movement of water through the plant and its subsequent evaporation from aerial parts. The process of transpiration helps plants manage water loss, maintain internal pressure, and facilitate the uptake of essential minerals from the soil. It is an integral part of the plant’s ability to regulate its internal environment and contribute to the broader water cycle.
