Question

What are the unique features of the desert plants and animal? Write in details in 80 words

Answer 1

Answer:

Some of the desert plants have roots that grow deep enough in the ground that they are able to reach the water. Small, spiny leaves of the desert plants prevent evap- oration, helping them to retain moisture. Some plants have glossy leaves that will reflect the sun's rays which also help them retain moisture.

Smaller Leaves and Stems

One of the chief adaptions of plant life to desert climates has been to reduce leaf and stem size. This allows the plant to concentrate its water instead of spreading it out over a wider surface area. Desert trees and shrubs tend to be short, with fewer leaves and branches.
