B) percolation 
C) runoff 
D) infiltration

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transpiration is the process by which water is released into the atmosphere from the leaves of plants. This process works against gravity, as the water is being transported upwards from the roots to the leaves. The other options, such as percolation, runoff, and infiltration, all involve water moving downwards with gravity's help.
