Suppose a plant on a farm needs a gallon of water per day to thrive. The farmer sets up an irrigation system that delivers exactly a gallon of water to the plant each day. However, the plant dries out. Why could this have happened

Explanation:

This could have happened due to two reasons, either excess heat or lack thereof. The plant needs a gallon of water to thrive on a regular day. If the plant receives an excessive amount of heat it will completely evaporate the water and slowly dry out the plant until it withers away. The same can happen if there is not enough heat/sunlight, but instead, in this scenario, the water will take longer to evaporate and will accumulate in the soil. Adding more water will eventually block oxygen from passing and cause the plant to dry out and wither away.

the answer is d (apex) good luck : ))
