There, moisture is discharged through small pores underside of the leaves. The amount of water transpired depends on the plant itself, the moisture in the ground (soil), the surrounding temperature, and the wind movement around the plant.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Transpiration can occur together with evaporation. When this happens, we call it <b>evapotranspiration<\/b>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Evapotranspiration accounts for about 10% of vapor in the
