It is dry in deserts and hot too. There are special kinds of plants that grow in desserts means they have specialized characteristics which help them beat the dry and hot weather.

Succulent plants such as cacti, aloes, agaves have ability to store water in their leaves and stems which have thick and hard outer layer to avoid evaporation of water.

These plants have small spicules on their outer surface which protects them from animals as well.

Answer:

Sun is too hot the climate is too dry

Explanation:

Deserts are characterized by presence of very hot and dry climatic conditions.  The plant species found in deserts have morphological and behavioral adaptations to withstand the unfavorable growth conditions. Since only a few plant species have adaptations to cope up with extremes of temperatures and water scarcity, few plants can survive in a desert.

Genetic engineers use plasmids. A plasmid is
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

C. A small, circular piece of DNA

Explanation:

A plasmid, usually circular but sometimes linear, is a small double-stranded DNA unit, which is chromosome independent and is capable of self-replication. Each plasmid carries only a few genes. Carrying only a few genes, the plasmid’s size ranges from 1 to more than 1000 kbp. Genes required for organism survival and those that are generally beneficial to the host organism, such as antibiotic resistance, are often found in plasmids [1].

Mostly plasmids can be found in bacteria, but they are also present in multicellular organisms and archaea. Plasmids usually contain at least one gene and are not considered independent life forms even though they possess separate genes from their hosts
