Question

All of the following are adaptations that help reduce water loss from a plant except
A)transpiration.
B)sunken stomata.
C)C₄ photosynthesis.
D)small, thick leaves.
E)crassulacean acid metabolism.

Accepted Answer

Transpiration is a natural process by which plants lose water through evaporation from their leaves. It does not help to reduce water loss. The other choices, sunken stomata, C₄ photosynthesis, small thick leaves, and crassulacean acid metabolism, all have adaptations that help reduce water loss in plants.
