How does light intensity influence the rate of transpiration?
Light intensity has no effect on transpiration.
Increased light intensity increases transpiration.
Increased light intensity decreases transpiration.
Light intensity decreases, then increases transpiration.

Explanation

Increased light intensity leads to stomata opening, which allows for a higher rate of transpiration.
