How rate of transpiration is reduced by decrease in light intensity?
Dear student
Please refer the solution below for the said query
The process of transpiration is controlled by opening and closing of stomata which exhibits diurnal rhythm ( stomata open during day time and close at night time). This means that light plays important role in transpiration. Blue and red light of the spectrum are very effective in opening of stomata. Hence, rate of transpiration increases under these lights and decreases under reduction of light.
Hope this information clears your doubt about the topic.
