AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -As the plants inhale carbon dioxide, water vapor escapes, a process called transpiration. During the dry season, the rainforest gets more sunlight. The plants thrive, putting out extra leaves and increasing photosynthesis. The photosynthesizing plants release water vapour into the atmosphere.

Detailed explanation-2: -The plant transpires more quickly under hot weather conditions, high temperature, high wind velocity.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants transpire more rapidly in the light than in the dark. This is largely because light stimulates the opening of the stomata (mechanism). Light also speeds up transpiration by warming the leaf. Plants transpire more rapidly at higher temperatures because water evaporates more rapidly as the temperature rises.

Detailed explanation-4: -As tropical rainforests are located on or close to the Equator, the climate is typically warm and wet. The high rainfall and year-round high temperatures are ideal conditions for vegetation growth.
