Question 12 • Physical Science

Which describes a disruption in the water cycle that could affect photosynthesis?

Answer
A
Heat causes an excess of evaporation.
B
Heat causes an excess of condensation.
C
Heat causes an excess of transpiration.
D
Heat causes an excess of precipitation.

Explanation

Excessive heat can increase evaporation, removing more water from soil and surface sources. With less water available, plants may absorb less and close their stomata to conserve water, which limits the carbon dioxide needed for photosynthesis. So the disruption is excess evaporation, choice A.
