Question

What does water loss in the form of a liquid called?

Answer 1

Water loss in the form of a liquid is called Guttation.
So, the answer is Guttation.

Answer 2

• Guttation is a process that occurs in plants in which there is a water loss through hydathodes. 
• Hydathodes are special glands which are located at the tip of the leaves or stems.
• Guttation happens during the night or early morning when there is a high relative humidity and soil moisture content. 
• Transpiration rates are lower during these periods than throughout the day, when the plants are actively growing. 
• However, the roots are continuing to absorb water, which is why the plants are under strain. 
• The sap of the hydathode gland is forced out by this pressure.
• A mixture of water, carbohydrates, water-soluble minerals, and other soluble substances that are moving through the plant are expelled during guttation.
• As a result, a white, crusty deposit is left behind as the sun comes out and the water evaporates.
