a) one with broad leaves and a tall Stem
b) one with spiny leaves and a thick Stem
c) one with droopy leaves and a short thin Stem
d) one with long, thin leaves and a long narrow stem

Respuesta :

b) One with spiny leaves and a thick stem.

Explanation:

  • Plants growing in desert face scarcity of water and they need to check transpiration rate.
  • To reduce the rate of transpiration the leaves of desert plands are reduced to spines, which resulted in a reduced surface area and negligible number of stomata.
  • The Stems of Desert plants are modified to store water to prevent desiccation and hence they are thick and succulent.

Answer:

Youre answer should be B) One with spiny leaves and a thick stem
