Which of the following conditions will favor a faster rate of transpiration?
|
|
decreased humidity and increased wind speed
|
|
|
increased temperature and reduced wind speed
|
|
|
reduced temperature and high light intensity
|
|
|
increased humidity and reduced wind speed
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘Low humidity, high temperature, guard cells are turgid (open) and moist soil’.
Detailed explanation-2: -The transpiration rate is increased due to the increase in light intensity. During daytime in the sunlight, the rate of transpiration is faster.
Detailed explanation-3: -The rate of transpiration depends on various factors like humidity, temperature, sunlight, atmospheric pressure and wind speed. As the wind blows faster, the water released by transpiration is carried away faster. So, rate of transpiration increases with velocity of wind speed.
