Plant X Diagram 4.2 The pupil takes the following steps: S1 S2 S3 S4 S5 S6

Plant Y

Two similar green plants X and Y are set up as shown in Figure 4.2. Initial mass of X and Y are taken. Plant X is left at room temperature that is 30 oC Plant Y is put under a heat source that is 40 oC The final mass of X and Y are taken after 2 hours. The results are tabulated in table 4.3

Results: Plants X Y Initial mass 280.60 g 280.60 g Table 4.3 (i) Using the formula, Rate of transpiration = Mass lost (g) Time (hour) Final mass 280.00 g 278.80 g
