Rate of transpiration depends on what?
A
Humidity
B
Temperature
C
Atmospheric pressure
D
All of these
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The rate of transpiration in plants is dependent upon many abiotic factors. These factors are relative humidity, light, temperature, wind, available soil water and carbon dioxide concentration.

Detailed explanation-2: -What are the factors which affect transpiration? Various environmental factors, such as the presence of light, relative humidity, temperature, wind speed, availability of water, and cellular factors like the orientation of leaves, number of stomata, cuticles, and lenticels affect transpiration.

Detailed explanation-3: -temperature. humidity. air movement. light intensity.

Detailed explanation-4: -Light. Plants transpire more rapidly in the light than in the dark. Temperature. Plants transpire more rapidly at higher temperatures because water evaporates more rapidly as the temperature rises. Humidity. Wind. Soil water. 14-May-2022

Detailed explanation-5: -Light, Humidity, Temperature, Atmospheric pressure, Wind speed or velocity.
