Translocation and transpiration

• Translocation is the transportation of sugar done by the phloems
• The rate of transpiration is affected by:

  1. light intensity
  2. temperature
  3. air flow
  4. humidity
• Transpiration is The evaporation of water from the leaves
• Rate of transpiration increases if the light intensity increases because The stomata opens wider to let more carbon dioxide into the leaf for photosynthesis.
• What is transpiration?

  The loss of water from leaves
• What is a transpiration stream?
