Which consequence occurs to prevent unsustainable water transport when a vascular plant experiences prolonged drought?

💡 Explanation

Xylem cavitation causes the breaking of the water column due to air bubbles and reduced tension, decreasing water transport; because cohesion fails, therefore water potential cannot be maintained, rather than roots increasing pressure against it under drought.
