← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when increased salinity inhibits stomatal closure?
A)Increased transpiration rate and water loss✓
B)Enhanced carbon dioxide uptake efficiency
C)Reduced susceptibility to photorespiration risks
D)Increased synthesis of essential proteins
💡 Explanation
Increased transpiration results because inhibited stomatal are unable to close, preventing stomatal conductance from regulating internal water balance; therefore, excess water evaporates rather than conserving it compared to plants under water stress, that tightly regulate stomatal opening.
