Which outcome occurs when a plant experiences extreme transpirational demand?

💡 Explanation

Xylem cavitation occurs in plants under transpirational stress reducing the water transfer capability enabled by adhesion. This is because tension increases beyond that cohesion can withstand, therefore water transport is less efficient, rather than root pressure compensating or stomata opening completely.
