Question

Find out whether the given statement is true or false and give reason in support of your answer.
Atmospheric humidity promotes transpiration from a green plant.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

The given statement is false.

Transpiration is reduced if the air outside is humid. High humidity in the air reduces the rate of outward diffusion of the internal water vapour across stomata, thereby reducing the rate of transpiration.
