Terrestrial plants have a waxy covering produced by the dermal tissues called the cuticle. If this waxy covering was overproduced so that the stomata became clogged, what would happen to

the plant?

A) The plant would not be able to exchange oxygen for carbon dioxide, and the plant's ability to perform photosynthesis would be limited.

B) Sunlight would not be able to reach the plant's ground tissue cells through the thick dermal tissue, and the plant's ability to perform photosynthesis would be damaged.
