Video transcript

Hello, everyone here. We have a question asking which of the following will reduce the rate of transpiration, a close to model that will reduce rates of transpiration be decreasing air movement. That will reduce the rate of transpiration C increase in temperature, increase in temperature will provide latin heat of vaporization, increasing the rate of transpiration. So C. Is incorrect, so D. Both A and B. Are correct. Thank you for watching. Bye.
