The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Transpiration**: - Transpiration is the process by which water vapor is lost from the plant to the atmosphere, primarily through small openings called stomata. 2. **Identifying the Role of Stomata**: - Stomata are tiny pores found on the surface of leaves and stems. They are surrounded by guard cells that regulate their opening and closing. 3. **Recognizing the Sub-stomatal Cavity**: - Behind the stomata, there is a space known as the sub-stomatal cavity. This cavity acts as a reservoir for water vapor before it exits through the stomata. 4. **Water Loss Location**: - The water vapor that is lost during transpiration comes from the sub-stomatal cavity. When the stomata open, water vapor diffuses from this cavity into the atmosphere. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct answer to the question "Water lost through stoma is from" is the sub-stomatal cavity. **Final Answer**: The water lost through stoma is from the sub-stomatal cavity. ---
