What adaptations to natural conditions are developed in plants?

Plants have a large number of different adaptations to their habitat conditions.

1) For example, plants in arid places (they are also called xerophytes) have developed root systems, for example, in a camel thorn, the roots go to a depth of 20 meters to get to moisture.
A small area of ​​the leaf blade is also characteristic. Some species have no leaves at all or they have been modified into thorns.
Other species are able to accumulate liquid in the stem, such as cacti and scarlet.
Usually plants in dry areas are grasses or small shrubs.

2) Plants of cold habitats are also represented by shrubs or grasses, but they are characterized by other adaptations.
They have very small leaves.
Plants are preparing for “hibernation”. They shed their leaves so that excess moisture does not evaporate, the protective layer becomes thicker.
Due to their small size, the snow cover protects the plants from the cold.
