the main cause of guttation in plants is root pressure.during night wen root pressure is high sometimes den due to this pressure watery drops ooze out with the assistance of special structures which help in guttation called the hydathodes

Do plants carry out excretion?
because the catabolic process is low. in plants catabolic product are used in anabolic process. and excess amount of water s excerated by tranpiration(in day time) and by guttation (in night time)
Why do drops of water appear on plants on cold mornings even when it has not been raining?
Because overnight when the air gets colder, it can not hold as much moisture, so liquid water condensates on any surface it can, including plants. On plants this is known as guttation water and is normally found at the tips or lowest points on the leaves
What is a loss of water from the stomata of the leaves called?
It is called transporation
Is protozoa cause disease in plants?
NO,Protozoa does not cause diseases in plants.
Plants are the main producers in most land what?
Biomes
When plants produce water What is this process called?
Guttation
Which plants does not have stomata?
An aquatic plant with submerged leaves
How do plants rid themselves of extra water and salt?
Plants get rid of water and minerals mainly through Transpiration. Some plants also release them through Guttation. But, Guttation is seen very rarely in only a few plants like Anthurium and Grass.
How can you determine whether adrop of water on tip of leaf is dew or water that has been forced by guttation?
Guttation is caused by root pressure causing more water to enter the leaves than is transpired. Where dew is condensed moisture produced during transpiration. Determining by observation: 1) Many plants do not under go Guttation (Due to low root pressure), so guttation is mostly isolated to grass, and small herbaceous eudicots. 2) Transpiration is low at night, which would support Guttation of plants over dew during these times. During the day even the plants that can undergo guttation can't keep up with transpiration, so during these times droplets are probably dew. Experiment wise: 3) If you were setting up an experiment you could try to label the ground water/ions, if the labeled is showing up on the leaf surface you have guttation.
What is guttation?
Guttation is sap that a plant releases on the tips of its leaves and stem. Guttation occurs at night, when excess water enters the plant.
What is the main cause of extinction in plants and animals spicies?
yes
When does guttation take place?
at night
Do plants carry out excretion?

What is the differences between transpiration and guttation?
Water leaves as vapor in day time in transpiration. Salty water leaves as liquid at night in guttation
What soil condition induces guttation?
Loam soil
Why are dews found on the leaves in the morning?
because of condensation.add But, if the drops of liquid are conspicuously at the edges of the leaf or at the tip, then it is probably guttation - a method by which plants dispose of surplus water. There are some nice pics in wikipedia.
