← Nature & AnimalsWhich physical outcome results under conditions that limit transpiration from plant leaves?
A)Increased xylem sap pressure flow✓
B)Decreased overall photosynthetic output
C)Reduced water molecule cohesion tension
D)Greater stomata aperture osmotic pressure
💡 Explanation
Increased xylem pressure flow occurs because reduced transpiration lessens water loss, therefore diminishing the tension from leaves pulling water; consequently, root pressure has a greater influence, rather than being counteracted by strong negative pull.
