Answer:

During hot summer day with high temperature, high light intensity and low humidity result in the increase in the transpiration of water from leaves.

The wilting of leaves helps the plant to reduce transpiration but the prolonged wilting leads to the death of the leaves and the wind causes the drooping of the leaves. This is advantageous to plant as it helps reduce the surface area for the plant to release water to the atmosphere and plants can conserve more amount of water.

Thus, drooping is helpful to plants.

Plants will usually droop their leaves and wilt on a hot day due the amount of water they're not receiving. This can be advantageous to a plant because this releases moisture in the air called <span>transpiration.

Hope that helps. -UF aka Nadia</span>

The concept of endosymbiosis (chloroplast & mitochondria) is widely accepted. What kind of relationship is it?

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

mutualistic

Explanation:

The interaction between two organisms in which both the organism gets benefitted from each other is called a mutualistic relationship. This mutualistic relationship is seen in the concept of endosymbiosis.

According to the endosymbiotic theory chloroplast and mitochondria are evolved by engulfment of different bacteria by ancestral cells. Then these bacterial remained in a mutualistic relationship with each other and the ancestral cell evolved into a eukaryotic cell.

So as mitochondria and chloroplast live with a symbiotic relationship with eukaryotic cells, therefore, it is considered as mutualistic relationship.
