Biology
1 answer:
tankabanditka [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Xylem moves water from roots to the leaves, and phloem moves food from the leaves to the rest of the plant. During transpiration water evaporates from the leaves and draws water from the roots.

If the rate of transpiration increases, the rate of absorption of water by the root increases too. Factors that affect the rate of transpiration also affect water uptake by the plant. If water is scarce, or the roots are damaged, a plant may wilt.

Factors affecting rate

The rate of transpiration is affected by several factors, including:

temperature

humidity

wind speed

light intensity
