Yes, it is an adaptation for survival in the desert. Rain is scarce so plants take advantage of the rare showers to have quickly sprouting seeds that grow and flower quite rapidly before the perpetual drought returns.
Apparently mulunggay plants reproduce by seed. The plants produce pods which contain the seed. Also it is common in the Philippines to grow plants from cuttings.

Because it allows them to reproduce much more quickly. When environmental conditions are poor, plants reproduce sexually because it allows them to produce tougher offspring that will withstand the bad conditions. If a plant is not healthy because of its environment, it can mate with a more healthy plant to produce healthier offspring. This, however, is a much slower form of reproduction which is why plants normally reproduce asexually.
Two false statements: Deserts have no permanent vegetation. Deserts are alwats hot.
C is incorrect as there are cold deserts, some of which are always cold.
Yes. Seeds may lie dormant for years until a good rain stimulates them to germinate and grow quickly to maturity so they can flower and produce a new generation of seeds.
Yes, especially annuals. Rain causes the seeds in the soil to germinate quickly, grow quickly, flower quickly and produce seeds that are then scattered on the soil to wait for the next good rain.

Deserts are not always hot. Some deserts are cool, some get quite cold in the winter and others are cold all year long.

None live in the world. While deserts contain a number of plants and animals, they are not living organisms. They are a iome that supports living organisms.
