Answer: The answer is D: Opening stomata at night only

Step-by-step explanation:

Opening stomata at night only is the physiological adaptation that would decrease the process of transpiration in a plant.

Transpiration referred to the way water move through plant evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. Transpiration of plant is also loss of water from stomata.
