Desert plants such as Cactus contains spines or scale like structures instead of leaves to reduce loss of water by transpiration. In these plants green parts other than leaves carry out photosynthesis (like - green branches and green stem).Thus, Cactus survive with the help of its "green stems" and "transpiration".

✪ Photosynthesis : It is a process in which green plants make their own food with the help of simple substances, like - sunlight, carbon dioxide, water and chlorophyll.

✪ Transpiration : The loss of water through stomata from plant body is known as transpiration.
