An Investigation into the Effects of a Single Factor on the Rate of Transpiration of 2 Different Species of Plant. The aim of this investigation is to determine and compare how variation of a named factor affects the transpiration rates of 2 different species of plant. The process of transpiration is the process in which water vapour is lost from within the plant and goes into the atmosphere. It occurs only when stomata are open on the leaves of the plant which allows the water vapour to pass through going to the lower water potential outside the leaf.(1) The actual rate of the transpiration can be effected by many different factors including light intensity, wind speed, temperature and humidity of air surrounding plant. In this investigation I am going to look into how one of these factors affects the rate of transpiration of 2 different species of plant. Factor (variant) =...
