absorb water by surface attraction .
(iv) Green house effect- The trapping of radiated heat from earth by the
g reen house gases like methan e, carbondioxid e which increase the
global average temperature, cause global warming , severe drought etc.

cell membrane away from the cell wall due to exosmosis whe n the cell
is placed in hypertonic solution.

Q6. a)
(i) Ganong's potometer
(ii) The movement of the air bubble indicates the rate of transpiration .
(iii) It is difficult to introduce a single air bubble in the capillary of the
photometer.
Cut leafy shoot may not survive for long time .

17
 (iv) A- Oarwins photometer
8-Garreau's Potometer
(v) A- The rate of movement of air bubble increases as the increase in
wind velocity leads to faster movement of water molecules away from
the leaf. Thus the rate of transpiration increases. . .
8- The rate of movement of air bubble decreases as the increase 1n
humidity reduces the outward diffusion of water vapor across the
stomata thus decreasing the rate of transpiration.
