Explanation:
How plants adapt to arid conditions
thick, waxy skin to reduce loss of water and to reflect heat.
large, fleshy stems to store water.
thorns and thin, spiky or glossy leaves to reduce water loss.
spikes protect cacti from animals wishing to use stored water.
deep roots to tap groundwater.
long eye lashes, hairy ears and closing nostrils help to keep out sand
thick eyebrows which stand out and shade eyes from the sun
wide feet so they don't sink in the sand
they can go without water for over a week because they can drink gallons in one go
they can go months without food - they store fat in their humps
body temperature can change to avoid losing water through sweating
they are well camouflaged
thick fur helps to keep them warm at night
