Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following explain why an increase in temperature leads to an increase in the rate of transpiration?I. water molecules have more kinetic energyII. warmer air can hold more water vapourIII. more stomata will close
A
I only
B
II only
C
I and II only
D
I, II and III
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -We have therefore determined that the answer option which best explains the relationship between temperature and the rate of transpiration is (B). As temperature increases, the rate of transpiration increases because water molecules diffuse from the leaf faster.

Detailed explanation-2: -Transpiration is the evaporation of water from plants that occurs in the leaves during photosynthesis, when stomata open and CO2 and O2 pass through. As the temperature rises, the water evaporates faster, so plants sweat faster at higher temperatures.

Detailed explanation-3: -Q5: Which of the following best explains the relationship between temperature and the rate of transpiration? AAs temperature increases, the rate of transpiration increases because water molecules are actively transported out of the leaf faster.

Detailed explanation-4: -The transpiration rate is directly proportional to the absorption of water by the roots from the soil. A decrease in water absorption causes the closure of stomata and wilting, thereby reducing the rate of transpiration.
