Dry Environment Plants:
-Waxy stomata which prevents excess water loss
-Sunken Stomata helps prevent water loss and stores water
-Deep Root system to absorb water from guard
-Succulent leaves so they can absorb moisture |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Aquatic Plants:
thick cuticles reduce water loss
stomata usually open, no threat of water loss, guard cells usually inactive
flat leaves
smaller roots so water can diffuse directly into leaves |
