To conserve water by reducing the surface area of the leaves, plants in snowy locations have needle-like leaves.
To conserve water by reducing the surface area of the leaves, plants in snowy locations have needle-like leaves. Additionally, the canopy is formed like a cone to prevent snow from collecting on the stomata of the leaves and covering them.
Explanation:
- In order to compensate for their lack of water, deciduous plants shed their leaves, which cause water to evaporate into the atmosphere.
- The majority of deciduous plants lose their leaves and go dormant during the chilly winter months.
- Evergreen plants retain their foliage, but to prevent water loss, they have thick, waxy coatings on their leaves and needles.
- Some animals use the insulation provided by snow to their advantage and hibernate, or sleep for extended periods of time in a protected den or burrow, to adapt to the cold weather.
