Which of the following describes a phenomenon that occurs when we observe plants that wilt? a. the roots begin to rot, causing them to no longer uptake water. b. the xylem releases all its water. c. the stomata close, cutting off transpiration and gas exchange. d. the plant begins absorbing oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

A

Explanation:

Plant wilt in other terms means shriveled plant. The plant is unable to support itself and its stem and leaves lay weakly on the ground. This is mostly due to loss of turgidity that is a significant aspect in offering plant support. Turgidity is the result of the plant cells being turgid (by osmosis) and are filled with water causing the plant to be erect. If the roots, that absorb water from the soil, malfunction or die, the plant will wilt.
