Answer:3.
Explanation: Cactus spines are basically modified leaves. They defend the cactus against herbivores but also assist in reducing water loss by reducing air flow to the cactus, which provides shade. And due to no leaves the cactus stems are what carry out photosynthesis. In simpler terms, the water on leaves can be lost due to evaporation, but cactus spines don’t.
