Plants lose water to the air through _____.

geography hydrologic cycle the atmosphere elements of weather and climate :humidity hydrologic cycle and its components elements of weather and climate : temperature

  1. Transpiration

  2. Respiration

  3. Photosynthesis

  4. Conduction

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Transpiration is the loss of water from a plant in the form of water vapor. Water is absorbed by roots from the soil and transported as a liquid to the leaves via xylem. In the leaves, small pores allow water to escape as a vapor.

The North Star is a part of the constellation ____________.
