  • c)
    Absorption of nutrients by roots
  • d)
    Movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Nidhi Bhatt answered
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration to a region of lower water concentration. This process is vital for maintaining cell turgidity and nutrient balance.

What can slow down the rate of transpiration?
  • a)
    High wind speeds
  • b)
    High humidity
  • c)
    Low humidity
  • d)
    Increased sunlight
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

C K Academy answered
High humidity slows down transpiration because the air is already saturated with moisture, making it difficult for additional water vapor to escape from the plant's stomata. This can impact the plant's ability to cool itself and transport nutrients effectively.
