Difference between Diffusion and Osmosis: Diffusion Diffusion is a spontaneous movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. The molecules…

Passive Absorption of water in plants from soil: The organ by which plant Absorbs water: Plant absorbs water by root hair The water which plant…

Active absorption: Metabolic energy is required in this process. In fact, the absorption in this process takes place by osmosis. Aikens (1916) and Priestly (1921)…

Plants can only absorb soluble minerals. They absorb minerals dissolved in solution from the soil through their root hair cells. Organs through which plants absorb…

The ascent of Sap from Root to Leaf Ascent of sap: Water together with dissolved mineral salts is called cell sap or sap. This solvent…

Transpiration: The physiological process by which the excess water is lost from the living tissues of plants in the form of vapor is called transpiration.…

Transpiration is an important biochemical process, as it has some harmful rules; it is mainly an essential method. It creates a negative pressure gradient that…

Stomata: For gaseous exchange and transpiration, plenty of tiny pores are found in leaves. These tiny pores are known as stomata Position: In the green…

The transpiration regulatory factors are of two types: External factors and Internal factors. External factors: (i) Light: Light regulates the transpiration directly and indirectly by…
