Explanation:

The smaller or fewer leaves a plant has, the less water is lost during transpiration since it has less surface area open to the sun and wind. For desert plants with small leaves or none at all, the twigs and stems help to carry out photosynthesis.

Answer:

Hope this helps

Explanation:

The desert plants are modified in course of time in such a way that they hold on to the water required for their survival . They reduce their leaves to spines to resist the loss of water. Reduced small leaves of such plants benefits the plant to survive by maintaining the amount of water in such adverse conditions.
