Question

How are the number of stomata related to the rate of transpiration?

How does wavelength of light influence the rate of transpiration? Compare the control group to the groups using red and green filters.

How do some of the environmental influences (heat, wind, and darkness) effect the rate of transpiration?

Answer 1

Ans 1 :

Stomata are the small pores that are present in the aerial parts of the plants (leaves) that allow them to exchange gases with the atmosphere.

Transpiration is the process of evaporation of water from the plant.

Now since the stomata act as the entry and exit of the materials from the leaves of the plant , so the rate of transpiration is directly related to the number of stomatas present in the leaf.

More the sstomata , more is the transpiration , less the stomata , less will be transpiration.
