Explain the adaptation features of plants
Answers
Answer:
Adaptations are special features that allow a plant or animal to live in a particular place or habitat. These adaptations might make it very difficult for the plant to survive in a different place. This explains why certain plants are found in one area, but not in another.
Examples of Plant Adaptations in Different Environments
Root Structure- Plants that grow in the desert have adapted the structure of their roots to be able to thrive with very little rainfall.
Leaf Waxing- Nearly all desert plants produce a waxy coating on their leaves or have prickly spines. These features help keep water from evaporating out of the leaves. This is an adaptation to help prevent dehydration in a desert climate.
Night Blooming- Some desert plants bloom only at night, which is an adaptation to the extreme heat of the desert sun and certain animal adaptations.
