How does the conifer's adaptation of Needle-like leaves help the tree to survive?
Needle-like leaves reduce the surface area of the leaf, thus reducing the amount of water that evaporates from the plant in low-temperature or low-water conditions.
How are trees adapted to their environment?
It has needle-like leaves to reduce water loss through transpiration. It has a sloping shape to prevent accumulation of snow.
What is the waxy coating on a conifer called?
1. to keep warmth. 2. to keep the leaves from falling. 3. and to construct the shape of the conifers needle like.
What is one reason some leaves are spiny or needle-shaped?
To reduce water loss from leaves in dry climate.
What is one reason some leaves are spiny or needle shaped?
To reduce water loss from leaves in dry climate.
Which Objects reduce turbulent flow over water and air?
To reduce turbulent the key is to have streamlined shape of an object.
How does streamlined shape affect the velocity?
the streamlined shape help to reduce air and water resistance like the shape of a plane and birds and fishes so as to reduce the over working and enable quick movement to it imposes less work not velocity
Does the needle float or sink in water?
A needle sink in water.
What makes a needle to float in water?
Water surface tension hold the needle on the water surface.
Why are some leaves waxy and needle like in shape?
It helps prevent water loss to coniferous trees in the winter in coniferous forests
Why can a sewing needle can float on the surface water in a glass?
Yes if the surface tension of the water is not broken. If you are careful you can place a needle on the surface of the water in a glass. Also if you reduce the surface tension with detergent (just a very little is enough) the needle will sink because it's density is greater than that of the water. NO (if the surface tension of the water is broken, a needle cannot float on the surface of water. This is because the needle has higher density than water (density is mass divided by volume).
Does a conifer need a wet environment?
no because it is not water based itself
