Plants need more than light to grow, they also need water. The desert does not have sufficient water to support large plants except on an oasis.
Cacti are perfect desert plants because they thrive in dry climates. They receive their light from the sun through their stem. They don't have leaves so they conserve water.
A desert is a mixture of both biotic and abiotic factors. Soil, sand, rock, water, air and light are abiotic while plants and animals are biotic.
Sand, gravel, soil, rocks, water, light - make up the abiotic (non-living) factors of a desert. All plants and animals living in the desert make up the biotic, or living factors of a desert.
Mount Desert Light was created in 1847.
there is quite a lot of light in the Sahara desert and at night it is quite a bit of light.
Flowers help cactus plants survive in the desert by attracting pollinators. Because of pollination, the cactus plants may have fruits full of seeds. For example, the giant saguaro cactus [Carnegiea gigantea] depends upon bats for pollination of its huge, light colored bat blossoms.
Desert plants have shallow roots to maximize water absorption during infrequent rainfall events. Shallow roots allow them to quickly capture and store water near the surface before it evaporates in the harsh desert environment. Additionally, shallow roots help desert plants access nutrients that are more abundant in the topsoil layers.
yes, the desert plant have long roots to collect water. Some desert plants have shallow roots that form a dense web just below the surface of the soil to collect water even from light rainfalls.
Deserts contain both biotic and abiotic factors:Biotic - includes all living organisms in the desert such as plants and animals.Abiotic - includes non living items - soil, sand, rock, gravel, water, air and light.

Sunlight is the best light for plants.
yes plants sensitive to light
