Question

what are xerophytes ? explain​

Answer 1

A xerophyte (xero meaning dry, phyte meaning plant) is a plant which is able to survive in an environment with little availability of water or moisture. Plants like the cacti and other succulents are typically found in deserts where low rainfall is the normal phenomen, but few xerophytes can also be found in moist habitats such as tropical forests, exploiting niches where water supplies are limited or too intermittent for mesophytic plants.

Answer 2

Answer:

A xerophyte is a species of plant that has adaptations to survive in an environment with little liquid water, such as a desert or an ice- or snow-covered region in the Alps or the Arctic. Popular examples of xerophytes are cacti, pineapple and some Gymnosperm plants.
