What's the difference between respiration and transpiration?

Respiration


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of respiring or breathing again, or catching one's breath.
  • (n.) Relief from toil or suffering: rest.
  • (n.) Interval; intermission.
  • (n.) The act of resping or breathing; the act of taking in and giving out air; the aggregate of those processes bu which oxygen is introduced into the system, and carbon dioxide, or carbonic acid, removed.

Transpiration


Definition:

  • (n.) The act or process of transpiring or excreting in the form of vapor; exhalation, as through the skin or other membranes of the body; as, pulmonary transpiration, or the excretion of aqueous vapor from the lungs. Perspiration is a form of transpiration.
  • (n.) The evaporation of water, or exhalation of aqueous vapor, from cells and masses of tissue.
  • (n.) The passing of gases through fine tubes, porous substances, or the like; as, transpiration through membranes.
