Xerophytes, such as cacti, usually have special means of storing and conserving water. They often have few or no leaves, which reduces transpiration. Phreatophytes are plants that have adapted to arid environments by growing extremely long roots, allowing them to acquire moisture at or near the water table.

Hope this helps you

The plants that tend to live in the dry conditions have certain adaptations that can be used by them to survive there.

These plants are known as xerophytes, they lack pure leafy structure and the leaves are succulents in nature and have thorns on them to prevent the loss of water.

They have broad stem and leaves that stores water and performs the process of photosynthesis.

The stomata closes at times to prevent the loss of water through transpiration.
