Experiment that will look into the effect of wind speed on rate of transpiration

Experiment that will look into the effect of wind speed on rate of transpiration is the setting up of potometer with fan.

Explanation:

A device that is used to estimate rate of transpiration by measuring the water loss / uptake rate is called Potometer. It takes up the water loss rate into consideration and lets us determine the transpiration rate.

Wind speed is one of the major factor which affects the rate of transpiration. The air bubble introduced in the potometer, lets us record the transpiration rate which can be checked for effect of wind speed by varying the speed of wind artificially in an experimental setup of potometer using fan to circulate air around the plant.

The effect of wind speed is thus recorded, as when the wind speed is higher than usual, the transpiration rate is found to be increased and vice - versa.
