Plant wilting occurs after excessive loss of water by transpiration and lesser absorption by the roots. The deficiency of water in the cells make them flaccid and the plant wilts.
wilting.
the plant didn't get enough water and has wilted. the wilting happens because there isn't enough water in the cells to produce the turgor pressure to make the cells rigid
A plant usually wilts because it needs water.
Yes, excessive transpiration can cause wilting in plants. Transpiration is the loss of water vapor from a plant's leaves, and when this process occurs at a higher rate than the plant can absorb water from its roots, it can lead to dehydration and wilting.

You need to know the plant and the stimulus.
Wilting
If you notice wilting, water it immediately. Otherwise, it truly depends on the plant.
The permanent wilting point is the minimum point of soil moisture that a plant requires so that it does not wilt.
Wilting occures when there is not enough water for the plant to stay alive. All plants will wilt if not givin enough water.
What a plant or animal does after receiving a stimulus is an example of a reaction. If the stimulus is unexpected, the reaction is an involuntary one.

Advantages of Wilting in Plants Though wilting is not considered good, there are few advantages. Wilting helps in reducing the rate of transpiration hence allow plants to conserve water and this prevents plant from over exhaustion in dry seasons as transpiration activities stops. Wilting also serves to reduce water loss, as it makes the leaves expose less surface area by modifying the leaf angle distribution of the plant (or canopy) towards more erectophile conditions. It develops drought resisting character in plant for survival.
