Which outcome occurs when heat increases transpiration demand, exceeding xylem supply?

A)Stomata close, limiting carbon dioxide intake
B)Increased root growth due to osmotic pressure
C)Enhanced photosynthetic enzyme production
D)Accelerated synthesis of cellulose polymers

💡 Explanation

Stomata close because heat increases transpiration. Osmotic regulation, rather than photosynthesis balances water, through abscisic acid signaling; this causes the stomatal pore to close, therefore limits Co2 diffusion for photosynthesis, rather than any other adjustment.
