Answer:

It will be dehydrated, and will eventually wilt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Transpiration causes water loss in a plant and this could be regulated by the cuticle, because it protect the plant tissues from unwanted water.

So when it is absent dehydration takes place, and the plant stem will not totally provide support. This will eventually wilt the said plant.
