Solution

The correct option is C Translocation of sucrose from source to sink
Transpiration is the process of loss of water through the aerial parts of the plant. It depends upon the amount of humidity level of the atmosphere.
When there is a high level of moisture then there is no concentration gradient between leaf and the atmosphere there is a minimum loss of water through transpiration.
So, the correct answer is 'Translocation of sucrose from source to sink'.
