Plant Adaptations
There are many different settings and climates to which plants have adapted. To assist them live in arid and dry areas, they have developed specific structures including thickened cuticles and stomata. For instance, the spines on the modified leaves of cacti help them retain more water by reflecting sunlight. Other plants have evolved specialised features, such air-filled bladders and water-filled chambers, to thrive in aquatic conditions. The plants can float and absorb oxygen from the water thanks to these adaptations. Aerial roots that some plants, including mangroves, have developed enabling them to survive in salt water. Additionally, some plants have evolved thick, waxy cuticles and small, compact forms that lower their surface area to volume ratio and aid in preventing heat loss in order to adapt to extremely cold climates. The plants can endure in cold climates thanks to these modifications.
