Rate Water Measure Transpiration Uptake Factors Affect Draw

Front Draw, label and annotate a diagram of a potometer and show how it can measure transpiration rate.
Back Potometer:

  • Measures rate of water uptake 
  • Measure distance moved by air bubble and divide by time taken to get rate of water uptake
  • Since 99% of water taken up is lost by transpiration, by measuring factors that affect rate of water uptake we measure factors that affect rate of transpiration
