Why does a plant in the hot sun wilt?

0

The plant’s leaves have small pores in them by which they transpire water. In the hot sun, the plant fails to take in enough water to replace the water that it loses to the surrounding air. Without the water to maintain the positive pressure in the plant’s stem and vascular system, the plant becomes flaccid and wilts.
