Describe an adaptation to a plant's life cycle and explain how this adaptation helps the plant survive. Source StylesNormal

The adaptation of a plant in an environment ( for example,desert) depends on the structural parts of the plant which enables it to complete it's life cycle.

Explanation:

Plants are found in different types of environment. They need to possess and show some features that will enable them to live successfully and reproduce in that particular environment. Such features may be structural, functional or behavioural which are known as ADAPTATIONS.

Furthermore, in environment where there is scarcity of water supply, plants known as xerophytes can survive or thrive. They show the following adaptations:

--> well developed roots: the roots grow down to great depths if necessary and branch extensively in order to absorb water from as large an area as possible.

--> presence of swollen stems: These stems contains water storage cells which are called succulents. They help the plant withstand long period of drought.

--> Reduced leaves: This helps in reducing water loss from leaves through transpiration. For example in plants like the cacti, the leaves are reduced to spines.

Therefore, these structures helps the plant survive in its present environment.
