Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What do arborists use to close stomata on trees during transplant? It also can reduce evaporative cooling of leaves, reduce CO2 uptake, and reduce photosynthesis
A
Antiperspirant spray
B
Anti-transpirant spray
C
An-hydrous spray
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A reflective cuticle will reduce solar heating and temperature rise of the leaf, helping to reduce the rate of evaporation. Tiny hair-like structures called trichomes on the surface of leaves also can inhibit water loss by creating a high humidity environment at the surface of leaves.

Detailed explanation-2: -Waxy cuticles, trichomes (leaf hairs), sunken stomata, and other leaf adaptations also help reduce transpiration rates by keeping the leaf surface cool or protecting it from air currents that increase evaporation.
