2.46 explain how the rate of transpiration is affected by changes in humidity, wind speed, temperature and light intensity

2.46 •light intensity: •the brighter the light, the greater the transpiration rate

                  •stomata close when it gets darker as photosynthesis can’t happen in the dark, so they don’t need to be open to let in carbon dioxide. When stomata are closed, very little

                   water can escape

         •temperature: •the warmer it is, the faster the transpiration rate

                  •when it’s warm, the water particles have more energy to evaporate and diffuse out of the stomata

         •wind speed: •the higher the wind speed, the greater the transpiration rate

                   •if wind speed is low, the water vapour surrounds the leaf

                             •high concentration of water particles outside it means diffusion doesn't happen as quickly compared to if it was windy, maintaining a low concentration of water

          

           •humidity: •the drier the air, the faster the rate of transpiration 

                     •diffusion also happens, and this is like what happens with air movement
