At night transpiration takes place by
Correct answer: C. Cuticle
- A. Stomata
- B. Lenticels
- C. Cuticle
- D. Intercellular spaces
Explanation
Stomata are closed during the night hours. Cuticular transpiration, which involves water loss through the plant's cuticle (a waxy layer covering the epidermis), generally continues at a slower rate during the night. While stomata are mostly closed, cuticular transpiration is influenced by factors like humidity and temperature. Although it's less significant compared to daytime, some water vapor may still diffuse through the cuticle in the absence of sunlight.

About Circulation
The circulatory system covers the chambers, valves and conducting pathway of the human heart, along with the cardiac cycle and control of heartbeat. It compares arteries, veins and capillaries by structure and function, and explains how the lymphatic system returns tissue fluid, transports absorbed fats and supports immunity.
