    B. Stomata closes, cutting off transpiration.

    Explanation:

    On a hot, dry day (or after several days with no rain or watering), transpiration causes more water to be lost than is coming in, and the water balance within the plant can get thrown off. The dehydrated collapsing cells in the leaves and stems can no longer remain erect, and the plant begins to wilt.

    Option - C

    The roots begin to rot, causing them to no longer uptake water. As, there is specific amount of molecules and nutrients requirement for any plant to develop and survive through time. While, the oxygen is always been necessary for the survival of all plant and animal life. While, due to some reasons if the roots of the plant are not able to absorb enough of the oxygen and other molecules then they will face the process of wilting or shortage of nutrients in there body causing the damage to there over all structure.
