hydration under heat stress enables plants to survive because water has high specific heat and high thermal conductivity. true or false?

1 answer

True. Water has a high specific heat capacity, which means it can absorb and store a large amount of heat energy without significantly changing its temperature. This helps plants regulate their temperature and prevents overheating under heat stress conditions. Additionally, water has high thermal conductivity, which allows heat to be transferred and distributed throughout the plant, helping to maintain a balanced temperature.
