I'm learning about the water cycle in school. What is transpiration?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Transpiration is when plants release water vapor into the air through their leaves. This process helps plants cool down and is a part of the water cycle.<|im_end|>

How does transpiration affect the water cycle?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Transpiration helps move water from the Earth to the atmosphere, where it can form clouds and eventually produce rain. This process is an important part of the water cycle, as it helps distribute water around the planet.<|im_end|>
