Detailed explanation-1: -Stomatal closure during times of low light intensity means that the loss of water through transpiration will decrease, so light intensity is a limiting factor for transpiration, as when light intensity is low, the rate of transpiration decreases.

Detailed explanation-2: -Light Intensity: Increasing the light intensity to which a plant is exposed is predicted to cause an increase in the rate of transpiration. Increasing light exposure will cause more stomata to open in order to facilitate photosynthetic gas exchange.

Detailed explanation-3: -Water Availability A decrease in water absorption causes the closure of stomata and wilting, thereby reducing the rate of transpiration.

Detailed explanation-4: -Increased humidity has a reduces transpiration. The lower the humidity the easier it is for the plant to release water. The type of plant is also a factor in how much a plant will transpire. For example plants grow in arid hot areas such as the desert will transpire less as they aim to conserve water.
