Question

The Arizona poppy has adapted to living in areas that receive less rain, but there are still periods of time that a drought occurs. What part(s) of photosynthesis would the plant not be able to perform if there were no rain? What would be the long-term effects on the plant if the drought continues? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

When plants lose more water than they can take up from the soil, they become water stressed. ... Such drought conditions certainly inhibit the growth of plants. If it goes long enough without water it will die because the plant uses water for a lot of different jobs needed to keep the plant alive, so the long-term effect is that the plant will die if the drought continues.
