Q3
A
More wind will drive away from the water vapour outside the plant
There is a higher concentration gradient
Meaning that it is easier to diffuse out of the plant

Water vapour leaves the plant through diffusion because there is more water vapour in the leaves because the wind/ air movement swept away the water outside the plant
