Cladodes<span> (also called cladophylls or phylloclades) are shoot systems in which leaves do not develop; rather, the stems become flattened and assume the photosynthetic </span>functions<span> of the plant. In asparagus ( Asparagus officinalis; Asparagaceae), the scales found on the asparagus spears are the true leaves.</span>
my understanding is that they evolve over time, one could say adapt, to survive to mimic other creatures, im sure there are plenty of books you could borrow from a library or buy online to learn more, and there are different studies people have done you might be able to find free online!!!

Answer:
d. Species diversity
Explanation:
The species diversity can be measured by:
- Species richness: Refers to the number of species are inhabiting a defined area.
- Species abundance: Describe the distribution of the species abundance.
Species richness is the number of species present in a sample, within a community, habitat or microhabitat, ecosystem, landscape, region or any well-defined spatial unit. It is a metric for measuring biodiversity which simplicity and easy interpretation make it a standard metric. It is the simplest and straightforward measure of biodiversity. It is just a count of species, with no need for abundance data. In some cases, this can be the cause of criticism, as it ignores information about the species-abundance distribution.
