There are small openings or pores on the lower surface of the leaves called stomata these opening are surrounded with guard cells.

The two functions of stomata are:

(i) Transpiration is possible through stomata, i.e., excess water loss from the plant.

(ii) Absorption of water from the roots, when there is loss of water from the stomata creates an upward pull.

(iii) Exchange of gases.

Most of the transpiration takes place through stomata  .  Stomata are two kidney shaped guard cells  .  In stomatal transpiration , water absorbed by the roots rises through the stem and reaches the tissues of the leaves and releases the water  .  It also takes carbon dioxide and gives oxygen during the photosynthesis  .

The water evaporates through the stomata present on the surface of the leaves by the process of transportation . The evaporation of water frome leaves generates a suction pull ( the same that you produce when you suck water through a straw ) which can pull water to great heights in the tall trees . Transportation also cool the plant.
