• D. Noon

Answer 1

The correct option is B Morning

Guttation is the moisture emitted by plants during night time.

Mainly it is caused by due to root pressure. At night time in absence of transpiration water will get accumulated in roots and it will cause root pressure due to high soil moisture level. in this condition, plants emit water in form of droplets it is called as guttation. So droplets are emitted during morning time in well-watered herbaceous plants of well-drained soil.

So the correct answer is 'Morning'.
