QN06: How temperature and light affect the plant growth and colonization? Discuss?

Expert Solution

Plants strive to achieve their optimum temperature, and in this it is necessary to balance air temperature , relative humidity and light. When the light levels are high, the plant will heat up , resulting in a difference between the temperature of the plant and the air. The transpiration rate of the plant has to rise to cool down.
