Definition |
||
1. | A process where messenger RNA or mRNA is produced by the synthesis of single stranded RNA from a double stranded RNA, this is known as Transcription. | When water comes out from the tips of leaves under low evaporation condition and this liquid phase of water loss in some plants is known as Guttation. |
Time |
||
2. | The transpiration process mainly takes place at day time. | The Guttation process takes place at day time or night time. |
Cooling effect |
||
3. | This process does not provide cooling effect. | This process provides cooling effect. |
Involvement |
||
4. | In the transpiration, both terrestrial and herbaceous plants are involved. | In the Guttation, only herbaceous plants are involved. |
Output |
||
5. | By the transpiration, pure water comes out. | By the guttation, sugars, salts and amino acids are given out. |
Conditions |
||
6. | This process takes place under dry conditions. | This process takes place under humid conditions. |
