Pick up the types of transpiration which do not occur in all plants:

Correct answer: C. Lenticular transpiration

  • A. Cuticular transpiration
  • B. Stomatal transpiration
  • C. Lenticular transpiration
  • D. None of these

Explanation

The correct answer is Lenticular transpiration. This type of transpiration occurs through lenticels, which are unique to woody plants and not present in all plants. In contrast, cuticular and stomatal transpiration are more widespread across plant species. Although stem transpiration can occur, it is not a universal characteristic and does not account for a significant amount of transpiration in most plants.

About Forms and Functions of Plants

Plant nutrition and transport cover mineral uptake, photosynthesis, xylem movement of water and minerals, and phloem translocation of sugars. Plant growth regulators include auxins, gibberellins, cytokinins, abscisic acid and ethene, whose effects on cell division, elongation, dormancy, fruit ripening and tropic responses should not be confused with mineral nutrition.
