The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Original Environment**: - The herbaceous plant is originally growing in a forest ecosystem. In this environment, it is adapted to specific conditions such as light availability, moisture, and soil type. 2. **Light Conditions in the Forest**: - In the forest, the plant receives limited light due to the presence of tall trees that block sunlight. This results in lower intensity, shorter duration, and potentially lower quality of light reaching the plant. 3. **Transplanting the Plant**: - When the herbaceous plant is transplanted to a park, it is moved outside its natural habitat. This new environment may have different light conditions. 4. **Light Conditions in the Park**: - In the park, the plant will likely receive more direct and uninterrupted sunlight. This change can significantly alter the plant's growing conditions. 5. **Impact of Microclimate Change**: - The change in environment (from forest to park) creates a new microclimate for the plant. The plant may not be able to adapt quickly to the new conditions, which can affect its survival. 6. **Conclusion on Plant Survival**: - Due to the abrupt change in microclimate and the potential stress from increased light exposure, the herbaceous plant may not survive in the park. ### Final Answer: The herbaceous plant may not be able to survive because of the change in its microclimate after being transplanted from the forest to the park. ---
