Answer:

A, B, C and D are the correct answers.

Explanation:

The example given in option A can be accepted as stomata are openings or pores that are found on the surface of the leaves and the water vaporates through them.

The example given in option B can also be accepted because thricomes take on the role of decreasing water loss by reducing the effect of sunlight on the surface of the leaves.

Cuticle is the layer on the outside of the leaves called epidermis, which protects the plant from losing water through vaporization. Therefore the example given in option C can also be accepted.

Leaves in the shape of needles help decrease water loss as they reduce the total surface area of the leaves greatly. Option D can be accepted.

Stomata on the surface of the leaves gets direct sunlight and this leads to more water to vaporize so option E can not be an example of an adaptation.

As surface area increases, so does water loss so option F also can not be accepted.

I hope this answer helps.
