← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome leads to reduced nutrient uptake during high humidity?
A)Decreased stomatal opening✓
B)Enhanced active transport
C)Increased guttation rate
D)Accelerated sugar translocation
💡 Explanation
Reduced stomatal opening decreases transpiration, because the concentration gradient lessened, which then reduces water movement upward via cohesion-tension. Therefore nutrient uptake decreases, rather than increasing active transport, because active transport alone cannot overcome limited waterflow in plants.
