Which effect accelerates when a plant's stomata remain consistently open in arid conditions?

💡 Explanation

Increased water loss drives dehydration and reduces photosynthesis because transpiration surpasses water uptake, leading to closure of stomata mediated by abscisic acid; therefore stomatal opening decreases photosynthesis, rather than increasing water transport which demands stomatal closure.
