← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when cut chrysanthemums deplete water?
A)Vascular cavitation limits water transport✓
B)Root pressure eliminates solute gradient
C)The pH rises altering enzymatic reactions
D)The stomata enlarge increasing CO2 uptake
💡 Explanation
Vascular cavitation occurs because transpiration continues, but the broken xylem can't maintain a continuous water column, therefore air bubbles form reducing water flow, rather than altered pH or increased stomata aperture.
