We watered a plant, and put a dome over it, to see if the leaves on the plant would transpire, or “sweat.” It was fun to see, and the dome even had condensation on it. We did the experiment a little too long, because you could see the reprocussions of keeping the plant covered for days instead of hours, and not receiving enough fresh air, and the plant started dying. The point was, if a plant gets too much water, it can release it through it’s leaves. Pretty cool.
