Transpiration is a process in which plants
(a) receive water from soil
(b) absorb water vapour from air
(c) prepare food from water
(d) release water vapour.

Academic Chemistry NCERT Class 6

Correct answer: (d) release water vapour.

Explanation: The loss of water in the form of water vapour from the aerial parts of a plant (mainly leaves) is called transpiration. The loss of water due to transpiration is quite high.
