Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Four similar plants are growing under different conditions of temperature and humidity. Which plant will wilt first? The plant placed in an environment with
A
high temperature, high humidity
B
high temperature, low humidity
C
low temperature, high humidity
D
low temperature, low humidity
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Photosynthesis Process When the temperature is high and humidity is normal, more stomates will open, letting in carbon dioxide for active photosynthesis. If the air is excessively dry and the plant is wilting, the stomatal openings close, thereby reducing photosynthetic activity and ultimately plant growth.

Detailed explanation-2: -Temperature, Humidity and Other Important Factors There are typically three main temperature points of plant growth. These refer to the minimal, optimal, and maximum temperature. Vegetative phase – 25 degrees Celsius and 60-70% humidity. Flowering phase – 28 degrees Celsius and 40-50% humidity.

Detailed explanation-3: -Depending on where the plants live, they can be classified into: Mesophytes. Hydrophytes. Xerophytes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plants grow best when daytime temperature is about 10 to 15 degrees higher than nighttime temperature. Under these conditions, plants photosynthesize (build up) and respire (break down) during optimum daytime temperatures and then curtail respiration at night.
