Question
Desert plants have long roots that help them ________ .
Answer: Option B
:
B
∙Since desert plants live in areas where water is scarce, their roots are long and go deep into the soil for absorbing water.
∙The leaves in desert plants are reduced to spines to minimise water loss by transpiration.
∙They have fleshy stem with a thick waxy coat to retain water.
∙Since their leaves are reduced to spines, their stem is green and performs photosynthesis.
