Transpiration is the process by which plants release water vapor into the atmosphere. What is the primary mechanism that drives transpiration?
Which of the following factors does not influence the rate of transpiration?
The combined process of evaporation and transpiration is known as (ET) or (ET_0). What does (ET) stand for?
Which of the following is not a consequence of evapotranspiration?
In the context of evapotranspiration, what is the term used to describe the maximum amount of water that can be lost through evaporation and transpiration under ideal conditions?
