Ans.
Guttation takes place at night while transpiration occurs during the day.
Guttation is the process through which water is lost by the leaves in the form of water droplets, transpiration where water is lost through water vapour.
Guttation is facilitated through the leaves and their vein endings while stomata in the leaves carry out transpiration.
Guttation is not a voluntary or a controlled process while transpiration is regulated and controllable.
