Answer 1

Answer:

The most common plant found in deserts is the plant cactus. The leaves of plant cactus are modified into spines to reduce the loss of water through the process of transpiration. The photosynthesis is carried out by the stem.

Explanation:

The leaves of the cactus are reduced or modified into spines and hence cannot do photosynthesis. This role is taken by stem in such plants and they have a green appearance in general. The spine modification helps them to reduce water loss during transpiration and also provides protection from invading animals. Spine formation reduces the effective surface area and hence the amount of water loss is very less.
