1.	Why does this happen?Leaves of plants fall off in a particular season.
Answer» Plants lose water through their leaves by transpiration. So some plants shed their leaves in dry season to reduce transpiration and conserve water. In plants, the waste substances are stored in the vacuoles of leaf-cells which are then shed along with the leaves in a specific season.
