Measurement of water uptake and transpiration in a leafy shoot

(0)
The resource involves the use of a potometer to demonstrate the measurement of water uptake by a leafy shoot and relate it to its evaporative water loss (transpiration). This is to help assess how well students have understood the processes of water uptake and transpiration by plants. It also aims to assess students on their understanding of the use of the potometer and how to minimise experimental errors.
