Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In a dry climate the stoma is open longer to absorb all moisture that is avaliable.
A
TRUE
B
FALSE
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In many plants, when the outside temperature is warm and water evaporates more readily, plants close their stomata to prevent excessive water loss. Closing the stomata, however, can disrupt plant growth by preventing carbon dioxide from entering the leaves and thereby reducing photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Opening stomata when the surrounding air is more humid means that less water will evaporate from the plant leaves, but opening them when temperatures are warmer means more evaporation will occur. Likewise, if a plant is already dehydrated, it may close its stomata to prevent further water loss.
