Water supply: If water is in short supply, then the plant will close its stomata. This will cut down the rate of transpiration. Transpiration decreases when the water supply decreases below a certain level.

Because there is no consistancy in the rate of transpiration
It takes the seed more faster and it might take the seed to some place it can't grow. Rate of transpiration increases with the increased wind velocity upto certain limit thereafter it starts declining due to closure of stomata.
it doesnt or it does
Windy conditions can increase the rate of transpiration by promoting more evaporation from the leaf surface. This can create a steeper concentration gradient, leading to faster movement of water through the plant. However, excessive wind can also cause plants to close their stomata to prevent water loss, potentially reducing the transpiration rate.
Angiosperms can survive drought by closing their stomata to reduce water loss through transpiration, storing water in their tissues, developing deep root systems to access water from deeper soil layers, and adjusting their growth and metabolism in response to drought stress. Some angiosperms also have specialized adaptations such as succulence or waxy cuticles to reduce water loss.
