What are the benefits of leaf transpiration to people? What are the benefits to the plants themselves?
1. First of all, transpiration is the driving force of plant water transport. Through water evaporation, transpiration tension is generated between vessel molecular plants, thus transporting root water to plant canopy. Inorganic salts necessary for plants are soluble in water, so transpiration is also the driving force of mineral nutrient transport in plants.
2. Secondly, evaporation of water will absorb heat. Through transpiration, the surface temperature of leaves can be reduced, and the leaf temperature can be prevented from being too high under direct sunlight in high temperature season, thus ensuring that leaf cells can carry out normal physiological activities and play their functions.
Benefits of leaf transpiration to people;
Adjust the climate and purify the air. On the green leaves, misty water vapor is discharged from time to time. The evaporation of gaseous water into the atmosphere is called leaf transpiration.
