A botanist explained: "Most houseplants sold for indoor use are adapted to filtered, indirect light, similar to the dappled sunlight found beneath a forest canopy. Placing them in direct, unfiltered sunlight for many hours can scorch their leaves, even though the plants still need some light to survive."

A plant owner moves her houseplant to a windowsill that receives many hours of direct, unfiltered sunlight each day. Based on the botanist's explanation, what would most likely happen to the plant?

  1. Its leaves would become healthier than ever
  2. Its leaves would likely become scorched
  3. It would no longer need any light at all
  4. The botanist's explanation does not apply to houseplants
