Question

there is extreme heat in desert ?how to write paragraph about adaptations with reference of the above sentence

Answer 1

Explanation:

Deserts are hot primarily because of a lack of water. When the sun shines on the ground, all of the absorbed sunlight goes into raising the ground's temperature. If there was moisture in the soil, much of this heat would go into evaporation of some of the water, which requires heat to accomplish, and thus keeping the soil cooler that it would otherwise be. This cooling is from the "latent" heat of evaporation that is required to change liquid water into water vapor, and is the same reason why water evaporating from your skin feels cold.

Associated with the lack of water is a lack of vegetation, which would also cause water to evaporate as part of photosynthesis -- a process called evapotranspiration.

The common perception that deserts are hot because of the bright sand is incorrect. Since vegetation is darker than most desert soils, if a desert could have vegetation that didn't need water to live, the desert would actually be hotter since it would absorb more sunlight. Instead, the vegetation causes water to evaporate (and uses some of the sunlight for other plant growth process). Similarly, if deserts were covered by dark soil rather than light soil or sand, they would also be hotter.

Answer 2

Answer:

Desert plants are highly adapted to survive the extreme conditions of the desert, such as the lack of water and the intense heat. Plants can get subsurface water thanks to their large root systems. To lessen transpiration, they have thick cuticles and depressed stomata on the surface of their leaves. individual appendages (body parts). Examples include large ears, lighter skin that reflects heat away, and humps that retain water and fat. To make it easier to move on the scorching sand, certain animals, like camels, develop hooves.

Explanation:

• Deserts experience intense heat, and this area is mostly dry. The plants and animals present in this area have unique adaptations that enable them to survive in such conditions.
• For instance, cactus and acacia plants can tolerate the hot, dry conditions of the desert thanks to a variety of adaptations.
• To reduce water loss through transpiration, they have thick cuticle on their leaf surface and deep pits for their stomata. They feature a unique photosynthetic system called CAM, in which the stomata stay closed throughout the day.
• To minimize water loss, their leaves are reduced to spines, while flattened stems handle the photosynthetic processes.
• Similar to humans, desert-adapted animals have thick skin to minimize water loss, long legs with flat, cushioned soles, long and thick eyelashes, and skin folds that cover their nostrils.
