The correct answer is - physically dettering herbivory, protection from frost, and minimizing evaporation.
The plants have developed multiple traits that help them in multiple different circumstances, and some of those traits are the thorns and the hairs on their steams and leaves.
The thorns primarily serve for protection of the plant. They are very sharp and give a painful sting (occasionally poisonous one), so they are a physical protection from the herbivores that would try to eat parts of the plants.
The hairs have multiple functions. They are like a coat that helps the plant to not be affected by frost, help to stop the evaporation, and also partially manage to stop most of the insects that feed on plants.
Two main factors :
First, the distance from the earth to the sun allows enough heat (energy), not too much, to be absorbed on earth's surface.
Second, earth's atmosphere allows it to keep most of the heat it absorbed during the day for the night. Otherwise, temperatures would drop down below a life sustaining point.
