Name the following:
The apparatus to record the rate of transpiration in a cut shoot.
Which of the following statements are true and which ones are false? Give reason in support of your answer.
Potometer is an instrument used for Demonstration of transpiration occurring from the lower surface of a leaf.
The apparatus shown here is Ganong's photometer designed to demonstrate unequal transpiration from the two surfaces of a dorsiventral leaf. Before keeping the leaf in between the cups, anhydrous calcium chloride (CaCl2) contained in two small vials were weighted and placed in both the cups. The ends of the cups were weighted and with corks through which two mercury manometers were connected. After a few hours, CaCl2 vials were taken out and weighed again.
(i) What is the purpose of keeping CaCl2 vials inside the cup?
(ii) After a few hours, CaCl2 vials were taken out and weighed again.
will you except any difference in weight? If so, give reasons.
(iii) What was expect the purpose of using a manometer?
(iv) What do you mean by transpiration?

What is the role played by the air-bubble in this experiment?
The apparatus shown in the following diagram is Garreau’s potometer designed to demonstrate unequal transpiration from the two surfaces of a dorsiventral leaf Before keeping the leaf in between the cups, anhydrous calcium chloride (CaCl2) contained in two small vials were weighed and placed in both the cups. The ends of the cups were closed with corks through which two mercury manometers were connected. After few hours, CaCl2 vials were taken out and weighed again.
What is the purpose of keeping CaCl2 vials inside the cup?
