What is transpiration?
The evaporation of water molecules from the surface of mesophyll cells in leaves followed by diffusion of water vapour through the stomata
What is cohesion?
The water molecules tends to stick to each other
What is adhesion?
Molecules of water tend to stick to the inside of the xylem vessel
What are the enviromental factors that affect transpiration?
Humidity, temperature and wind velocity
Why do plants need magnesium ions?
magnesium makes the chlorophyll color green that’s how it’s able to photosynthesis
Why do plants need nitrate?
To build protein and growth
The amino acid contains nitrogen therefore nitrate is needed
