BGY 2001 CONCEPT OF BIOLOGY Laboratory Report PRACTICAL 8 TRANSPIRATION Tittle: Transpiration Objectives: 1. To measure transpiration rates by using photometer. 2. To determine the factors that influences the rate of water loss from a plant through transpiration Introduction: Most of the water a plant absorbs is not used for a plant’s daily functioning. It is instead lost through transpiration‚ the evaporation of water through the leaf surface and stomata‚ and through guttation
