The tundra biome has extremely cold temperatures during much of the year and a hard sublayer of permanently frozen soil called permafrost. Which of the following adaptations would plants in the tundra most likely have?
A.
Plants in the tundra are large with root systems that branch deep into the ground.
B.
Most plants in the tundra are trees that have thick bark to keep them from freezing.
C.
Plants in the tundra are small, low-growing, and are often dark in color to absorb heat.
D.
Most plants in the tundra have waxy skin that allows water to run off them easily.

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

The layer of thawed soil is too shallow for deep rooted plants to live.  Shallow rooted plants, such as grasses and small shrubs , are common.  Having shallow roots allows for plants to absorb and hold on to water that is needed for survival in harsh conditions.

humans can cause extinction of a species through overharvesting, pollution, habitat destruction, introduction of invasive species (such as new predators and food competitors), overhunting, and other influences. explosive, unsustainable human population growth is an essential cause of the extinction crisis.
