Answer: decrease


*Question*
Given the fact that:  As humidity increases, the water potential gradient across the inside and outside the leaf become more equal, and so the rate of transpiration decreases.  Answer the question:   Milo operates a greenhouse for profit. One day he turns up the humidity controls. What will happen to the rate of transpiration of the plants in the greenhouse increase or decrease?
**Answer**
decrease
