Question

State whether the following statements are true or false .
Transpiration decreases as air temperature increases.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

As the temperature increases, it makes the surrounding air dry that causes the rate of transpiration to increase. The increase in temperature results in a higher vapour pressure gradient. With the decrease in temperature, transpiration also decreases.

So, the given statement is false.
