Answer: The can looks like it was crushed because the outside pressure (aka atmospheric pressure) is pressing against the can that has no air in it, which is also called a vacuum in chemistry terms. The main thing to focus on is the atmospheric pressure that is pressing against the can and in the process, crushes it.

Answer:

Transpiration.

Transpiration is the answer, because transpiration is a plant’s loss of water, mainly through the stomates of leaves. Stomatal openings are necessary to admit carbon dioxide to the leaf interior and to allow oxygen to escape during photosynthesis, hence transpiration is generally considered to be merely an unavoidable phenomenon that accompanies the real functions of the stomates.
