When transpiration would be minimum?
high humidity
Why is rainy day decrease transpiration?
Because the humidity is high and hence the amount of water lost through transpiration is lessTHANKS
How does high humidity affect weight?
Humidity generally does not affect weight.
When transpiration is minimum?
humidity
How does a type of plant affect transpiration?
*stomata -open-increased transpiration -closed-decreased transpiration *consequence of gas exchange -tradeoff of more gas exchange resulting in more transpiration *environmental factors -humidity -air movement -evaporative cooling -wind stress -intense light/heat
How does mist affect the rate of transpiration?
How does humidity affect the rate of transpiration
Does a leaf sweat?
By transpiration. Water molecules pass out of the leaf by diffusion following the concentration gradient from higher concentration to lower concentration. The rate of transpiration varies. Factors that affect the rate of transpiration includes wind speed, light intensity, temperature and humidity
Which factor affects most in transpiration-humidity or light intensity?
Light intensity
Does snow affect humidity?
yes snow do affect humidity
How does light affect the gradient of water potential of a plant leaf?
Transpiration regulates how much water moves through the plant. In hot dry air, more water will evaporate out of the stomates resulting in a higher transpiration rate. Light, or temperature, can therefore increase transpiration. Wind will evaporate more water from the leaf's boundary layer resulting in a higher transpiration rate. Humidity or moisture will lower transpiration because less water will evaporate out of the stomates.
How does cuticle affect transpiration?
it doesnt or it does
How can transpiration be prevented?
Transpiration in plants is regulated by sunshine, temperature and humidity. If you increase humidity in the air, the rate of transpiration will go down. Another approach to reduce transpiration in crop plants is application of certain chemicals like cycosil to close the stomata during sunshine.
