D) algae abundance

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Wind can increase the rate of water loss by evaporation as it promotes the movement of air molecules thereby facilitating the diffusion of water vapor away from the organism's surface. Insect biodiversity, plant pollination rates, and algae abundance do not have a direct effect on an organism's rate of water loss by evaporation.
