During a dry period, a plant's rates of photosynthesis and transpiration both decrease. This suggests that the plant has its stomates open. is operating under light limitation. is operating under light saturation. has its stomates closed.

A plant living through a drought keeps most of its stomates closed. This results in a trade-off of physiological processes in which a. photosynthesis increases and energy accumulates in the leaf. b. CO2 uptake and water loss both decrease, but photosynthesis increases. c. CO2 uptake and water loss both increase, but leaves are light-damaged. d. water is conserved and energy accumulates in the leaf.

If a plant closes its stomata, this means * it will become turgid it loses water by transpiration it can take in more oxygen for respiration it cannot take in carbon dioxide for photosynthesis
