Which of the following processes are associated with plants during dark period ?

a

Photosynthesis and respiration

b

Respiration and transpiration

c

Transpiration and conduction

d

Conduction and respiration

Answer : Option D
Explanation :

Plants are dependent on light for photosynthesis, the end result of which is the formation of sugar. Conduction and respiration are, however, not dependent on light. During dark hours. Sugar produced during photosynthesis is used by respiration. Similarly, even in dark periods, xylem and phloem tissues are involved in the conduction processes within plants.
