Which outcome occurs when guttation exceeds transpirational water loss?

💡 Explanation

Hydathodes secrete water because root pressure builds beyond what the plant transpires; therefore, water is forced out as visible droplets, rather than xylem backflow, cavitation nor affecting mineral absorption directly.
