Fats and lipids are hydrophobic which makes them water repelling compounds. Therefore, presence of a waxy coating on the outer skin of the desert plant prevents loss of water via evaporation from the skin of the plants. This helps the plant store water and increases its survival period.

Explanation:
Volume = length * breadth * height
here length= breadth= height
isometrically (increasing all our dimensions at the same rate during growth)
L_1= 1.8 m = 180 cm
L_2= 50 cm
keeping all other dimensions same we can write
So volume ratio = (L1/L2)^3
= (180/50)^3
= 46.65
