← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when stomata malfunction, remaining continuously open?
A)Excessive transpiration rates ensue immediately✓
B)Increased photosynthetic efficiency occurs rapidly
C)Oxygen concentration inside increases excessively
D)Carbon fixation proceeds unimpeded continuously
💡 Explanation
Uncontrolled stomatal aperture causes an accelerated output of water via transpiration, because the water potential gradient drives continuous water loss. Therefore, rapid dessication is the result, rather than efficient CO2 uptake or increased photosynthesis.
