Fruits grown in hot climates are usually less sweet than those grown in cooler temperatures. The high temperatures increase the rate of respiration in the plants, thus reducing the sugar content in some fruits. Why does increased respiration in the leaves and stems reduce the sugar content in the fruits of a plant

The correct answer is - Sugars produced in the leaves are used as an energy source instead of being stored in fruits.

Explanation:

The high temperature in climate leads to an increase in the respiration rate in the plants so they require more energy in the process.

They produce sugars in the leaves which leads to a decrease in the sugar content in the fruit as energy is the primary focus in such situation to survive in high temperatures.
