Understanding Transpiration and Its Importance to Plants
The video explains the process of transpiration in plants, which is the loss of water vapor from a plant through evaporation from the surfaces of the plant, mainly the lower surfaces of leaves. The video also explains the role of...

Structure Of The Leaf
Plants make food through photosynthesis. Using their leaves, plants combine sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to make glucose and oxygen. A leaf is like a plant's food factory, collecting all of the components into one place so that...
