(A) When a plant in a potometer is placed under a fan or in bright light,the rate of transpiration increases significantly.Transpiration is the process of water loss from the aerial parts of the plant,primarily through the stomata.$A$ fan increases wind speed,which removes the water vapor layer around the leaf,while bright light increases the temperature and promotes stomatal opening.Since the rate of water absorption is directly proportional to the rate of transpiration,the water column in the potometer moves faster to compensate for the lost water.Therefore,the air bubble in the capillary tube will move faster.
