Question

Read the following statements regarding transaction and select the correct option
I. Transpiration is the loss liquid droplets from the plant
II. Low atmospheric pressure inhibits transpiration
III. Transpiration maintains the shape and structure of plant parts
IV. Cuticular transpiration takes place only during day time

• A. I &II only
• B. I, II &III only
• C. III only
• D. None of the statements are true

Answer 1

The correct option is D None of the statements are true

• The process of loss of water from the aerial part of the plant in the form of vapor is known as transpiration.
• It is of three types:-

(i) Cuticle transpiration (loss of water from cuticles),

(ii)Lenticular transpiration (loss of water from lenticels)

(iii)Stomatal transpiration (loss of water from stomata)

• Atmospheric pressure, humidity, and temperature are some factor that affects transpiration.

So, the correct option is 'None of the statements are true'.
