Define the process of transpiration and state the possible advantages and disadvantages of transpiration in plants.
You have to design a leaf that has been adapted to grown in a dry environment by limiting transpiration. In your design you have to include at least four (4) adaptations and explain how this adaptation will contribute to the plant’s ability to grow in these conditions.
