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.
Watering plants more efficiently can help to control wilting. Wilting can also be caused by a variety of fungi, bacteria and viruses and cannot be helped.
If you are referring to the BK101 Labpaq kit the question is supposed to be How do the changes in the condition of the potato strips relate to the wilting of plants?

The two main types of wilting are physiological wilting and pathological wilting. Physiological wilting occurs when plants lose water faster than they can absorb it, often due to environmental factors like drought or high temperatures. Pathological wilting, on the other hand, is caused by diseases or pests that damage the plant's vascular system, impairing water transport. Both types result in drooping leaves and stems, indicating stress in the plant.
To measure the wilting point using a pressure gauge, you would slowly decrease the pressure in the soil using the gauge until the plant begins to show signs of wilting. The pressure reading at which this wilting occurs is considered the wilting point. This method helps determine the soil moisture level at which plants start to experience water stress.
When flowers stop living it is called wilting
A hibiscus flower typically lasts for about one day before wilting.
Your cucumber plant may be wilting due to lack of water, root rot, pests, or disease. Check the soil moisture, drainage, and look for signs of pests or disease to determine the cause of wilting.
