• Ensures a plant’s survival
• Organic food molecules can be transported :
  – To the growing regions in the plant for growth &
    development
  – To the plant cells for metabolism
  – Downwards from the leaves to the storage organs such

• The loss of water as water vapour from a living
  plant to the atmosphere due to evaporation.

  stomata of le ave s .

• A s m all am ou nt is los t th rou gh th e cuticle
  or th rou gh th e lenticels in wood y s te m
• T hree main sites of transpiration are :

  – S T OM A T A – 90% of transpiration takes place
    through minute pores on leaves called stomata

  – C UT I C L E – 10% of transpiration takes place
    through the cuticle. The amount of water loss
    varies with the thickness of the waxy cuticle

  – L E NT I C E L S – small pores in the stem which
    allow gaseous exchange. Only small amounts of
    water are lost through the lenticels.
• Transpiration occurs mainly during the day
  when the stomata are opened.

• Heat from the sun causes the water to
  evaporate from the walls of the spongy
  mesophyll cells.

• The water vapour accumulates in the
  substomatal air chambers before diffusing
  from the plant through the open stomata
• Water move into the mesophyll
  cells by osmosis from the
  adjacent cell

• Water flows from the xylem
  vessels along a chain of cells to
  the outermost mesophyll cell.

• Water is pulled through the xylem
  vessels from the root to the

• Creates a transpirational pull that pulls
  water & dissolved mineral ions from the
  root to the leaves.

• Water supplied to the plant is used for
  photosynthesis & cell metabolism. Mineral
  ions is used for cell activities & growth &
  development of the plant.
• Water keeps the cell turgid  give support
  to leaves & young stems (herbaceous
  plants).

• To keep the plant cool, an important effect
  particularly in hot condition.

• Water evaporates from the plants to the
  atmosphere faster than it can be absorbed
  from the soil, it is withdrawn from the plant
  cells  flaccid – leading to wilting

         TH E L E A VE S
• Water & mineral ions are absorbed by young
  roots with thin epidermis. (osmotic forces +
  active transport)
• The pressure of root hairs increases the
  surface area for absorption.
• The cell sap in the root hair cell contains
  sugars, amino acids, & minerals  more
  concentrated than the surrounding dilute soil
  solution.

• The process continues & water is
  transported from one root cell to
  another by osmosis.

• In the cells of the endodermis,
  mineral ions are actively pumped
  from these cells into the solution in
  the xylem vessels in the root.

• Solution in xylem more concentrated
   water enters xylem by osmosis.
• This process creates an upward force called
  ROOT PRESSURE.

• Helps to push water in the xylem up to a
  certain height in the plant.

• Root pressure alone is insufficient to force the
  water to the top part of a tall tree.

• Need CAPILLARITY ACTION &
  TRANSPIRATIONAL PULL.
G U T T A T IO N
• In small plants, root pressure can push
  water all the way up the stem & out of
  special pores called hydathodes at the
  edges of leaves  Guttation

• Occurs on cool humid morning when the
  air is too saturated for the water drops to
  evaporate from the leaves.

• The external factors that affect the rate of
  evaporation.
   – Air movement
   – Temperature
   – Light intensity
   – Relative humidity
A IR MOVE ME NT
• Movement of air carries away water
  molecules that have diffused from the
  leaves.
• The faster the air movement (wind speed)
  the greater the rate of transpiration.
• When there is little air movement/ in still
  air, water vapour diffusing out of the leaf
  accumulates around the stomata.
• Decreases the concentration gradient of
  water, the transpiration rate reduces.
TE M P E R A TU R E
• A rise in temperature increases the kinetic
  energy of water molecules & increase the
  rate of evaporation (transpiration).

• Lowers the relative humidity of the air 
  increase the rate of transpiration.

• Temperature low, kinetic energy of water
  molecules is decreased.

• Relative humidity of the air is higher 
  decrease the rate of transpiration
L IG H T IN T E N S IT Y
• The light intensity increased, the
  rate of evaporation increases.

• Light not effects evaporation but
  causes the stomata to open 
  increasing water loss from the
  plant.

• At night @ dark, stomata close 
ð ^
• The rate of evaporation depends on the
  difference in concentration of water molecules in
  the sub-stomatal spaces & in the surrounding
  atmosphere.

• The lower the relative humidity of the
  surrounding atmosphere, the faster will the water
  vapour escape from the stomata.

• High relative humidity reduces water loss.
ROOT
       PRESSURE
• If a stem is cut just above ground level,
  a considerable amount of sap will exude
  from the cut stump, showing that there is
  a force pushing water up the stem from
  the roots.

• Its ROOT PRESSURE  The result of an
  active process in which energy from ATP is
  used.
ROOT
        PRESSURE
• Root pressure alone is not strong enough to
  drive water to the tops of tall trees at the
  speeds achieved during a normal growing
  season.
COHESION &
       ADHESION OF
         WATER
• COHESION = the force of attraction
  between the same molecules

• The cohesive forces between water
  molecules hold the continuous columns of
  water together & when water transpires
  from the leaf, the whole of the water
  column moves up the xylem vessels.
• ADHESION = the force of attraction
  between different molecules

• Water molecules tend to adhere to the
  walls of the xylem vessels.

• The adhesive forces can support a
  considerable mass of water.

• Cohesion + adhesion = capillarity (the rise
  of water in a capillary tube).
O P E N IN G &
     C L O S IN G O F
• Dicotyledonous O Mon the lower surface
          S T leaves = A T A
• Monocotyledonous leaves = both the upper &
  lower surfaces.

• Each stoma consists of a pair of kidney-shaped
  guard cells surrounding a stomatal pore.
• A guard cell has a thinner elastic
  outer cell wall & a thicker, less elastic
  inner cell wall. It has a nucleus,
  cytoplasm & chloroplasts.

• The opening & closing of the stomata
  in the leaf controls the diffusion of
  CO2 & O2 into & out of a leaf as well
  as the rate of transpiration.
S TOMA TA L OPE NING
• DAY : photosynthesis occurs & CO2 level is low
  in the leaf.

• Potassium ions (K+) diffuse from surrounding
  epidermal subsidiary cells into the guard cells.

• In many plant species, starch stored in the guard
  cell is converted into malate.

• The accumulation of K+ & malate ions increase
  the osmotic pressure in the guard cell.
• Water enters by osmosis from surrounding
  epidermal cells into the guard cells

• Two guard cells become turgid & curve
  outward & the stoma opens.
S TO M A TA L
• NIGHT : no photosynthesis &G level
      C L O S I N CO2
 is high. Potassium ions move out of the
 guard cells into the epidermal cells.

• Malate ions are converted to starch. The
  osmotic pressure in the guard cells
  decreases.

• Water diffuses out to the surrounding
  epidermal cells by osmosis.
• Guard cells become flaccid & stoma
  closes.

• The stomata also close, when there is
  insufficient water supply & the
  transpiration rate is high.

Yang menjadikan orang mukmin itu
 pemurah adalah agamanya,yang
   menjadikan orang mukmin itu
  mempunyai kehormatan adalah

  orang mukmin itu mulia adalah
