Why does an increase in the humidity of the air slow down transpiration?
The stomata close, so water vapour can no longer diffuse out
Less water evaporates because the air holds less water vapour
The guard cells become less turgid, so the stomata get narrower
The concentration gradient of water vapour out of the leaf is smaller
