<h2>Wet versus Dry habitats</h2>
Explanation:
- Plants from wet habitats have a relatively large number of stomata and thin cuticle
- Plants from dry habitats have a less number of stomata and thick cuticle
- Stomata helps in exchange of gases whereas cuticle reduces the loss of water
- If water is more then plants have large number of stomata which helps in great access to water and increases support for herbaceous tissues
- In case of dry habitat conditions are not favorable with regard to water hence a thick cuticle is required to minimize the water loss while in wet habitat water is abundant hence they have a thin cuticle
A.Vascular plants have a relatively large number of stomata
B. Plants from wet habitats include white lotus,water lily
C. Plants from dry habitats include xerophytes for example cactus,oleander
Answer: D. Passed on from parent to offspring
Genetic variation is advantageous because it enables some individuals and, therefore, a population, to survive despite a changing environment.
