e. evaporation
Explanation:Transpiration: The release of water from plant leaves
Plants put down roots into the soil to draw water and nutrients up into the stems and leaves. Some of this water is returned to the air by transpiration.
In plants, the water is reached to the surface of leaves from the roots. The cohesion-tension theory governs the water movement. This water enters the leave surfaces through small pores such that it gets turned to vapor and liberated into the atmosphere. This process is termed transpiration.
