Answer:

A. A thick, waxy covering to prevent evaporation.

Explanation:

Because the desert is usually dry and hot, plant that live in these ecosystems need to adapt to the environment to prevent the loss of water. Water escapes from plants through their leaves as a result of photosynthesis. Desert plants have special adaptations to at least reduce the loss of water and one of them is the thick waxy covering of the leaves to seal in the water.

This type of reproduction produces variety in species.
ruslelena [56]
Sexual Reproductions (i.e. Meiosis)


In Meiosis you have a crossing over stage in prophase I, which will result in the exchange of genetic material + the random assortment at metaphase 1 and 2 increases the variety.

There is approximately 10 billion different ways that a child can look from a mixture of the paternal and maternal genes due to all the random events that happen in meiosis/ sexual reproduction.
