Which of the following accurately describes the correct order of events in the process of transpiration within a plant? a. water is absorbed through the leaves, is transported through the stem, and nourishes the roots. b. water enters the roots, passes through the leaves, and leaks through the stem pores. c. water is absorbed through the leaves, nourishes the roots, and leaks through the stem pores. d. water enters the roots, gets transported through the stem, and evaporates through the leaves.

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The transpiration is the process in which plants carry water or moisture via roots to the small pores present underside of leaves where it converted into vapor and released to the atmosphere.

It takes place mainly at the leaves. Stomata are open for the exchange or passage of CO₂ and O₂ during photosynthesis.

Two functions of the transpiration are -

(1) Deploys a cooling effect on plants.

(2)Maintenance of water balance and uptake of salts, minerals.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
