Transpiration is least in

1. good soil moisture
2. high wind velocity
3. dry environment
4. high atmospheric humidity

Correct answer: high atmospheric humidity

Solution

Transpiration is least when the air around the plant is already saturated with water vapor, because the diffusion gradient for water loss is minimal. High atmospheric humidity therefore reduces transpiration more than the other conditions listed.
