It has needle like leaves to reduce water loss.
It has a thick and fleshy stem to store water.
It’s stem has a waxy waterproof kind of coating to retain water.
It’s roots are widely spread out to absorb as much water as possible.]]> 2019-08-01 03:21:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/372897837 https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/372898506 Pine Trees
They have a thick bark to protect against the cold.
Their leaves are cone-shaped with flexible branches which helps them to cope with heavy snowfall.
Pine cones protect the seeds during the harsh winter.]]> 2019-08-01 03:28:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/372898506 https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/372898570 Plant-Cactus
Parts of the cactus-hollow and waxy stem -lateral roots     -needle-like leaves
Function of parts: hollow and waxy stem-store water for the cactus to photosynthesise, keeps the cactus cooler to reduce water loss
Lateral roots-absorb water in deeper parts of the ground
Needle-like leaves-lose less water, reduces water loss]]> 2019-08-01 03:29:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/372898570 https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/372900748 Rose
The thorns along the stem of the rose are not only used to protect them from other animals, but they are also used to help the plant in hanging onto other vegetation when growing over it.]]> 2019-08-01 03:53:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/372900748 MrAlexC https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/373166279  Leaves are often arranged at different angles so that a plant avoids shading its own leaves – important in rainforests where competition for light is intense ]]> 2019-08-04 11:23:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/373166279 MrAlexC https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/373166324  Leaves become larger as the plant rises to make the most of increased sunlight

Some plants like onion, oat and maize may have about the same number of stomata on both leaf surfaces. 
In plants with floating leaves, stomata may be found only on the upper surface and submerged leaves may lack stomata entirely. Most tree species have stomata only on the lower leaf surface.]]> 2019-08-04 11:33:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mralexc/mrchewisgreat04/wish/373166493
