The cuticle, a waxy layer of the plant, prevents water loss.
The general name is a succulent or a cactus.
A cactus is deeply rooted and, even in a hot desert, there may be dampness below. Also, whenever it does rain, the cactus will store water in special cells that cause the cactus to swell. Another adaptation is that a cactus's covering is waxy to prevent water loss. While it may be hot during the day, temperatures can plummet at night.
The roots grow deeper to gather more water, the stems are woody and the leaves are waxy to prevent water loss by transpiration, cacti have also evolved other mechanisms to prevent water loss by transpiration.
A waxy layer called the cuticle prevents water loss in leaves.
Cactus have a waxy layer on them to prevent water loss and reduce transpiration
Water is stored in tissue in the stem of the cactus.

in the body of a catus, water is stored as not much rain falls where a cactus so water is stored to prevent the cactus from dying out. there are thorns on cacti to prevent it from being eaten by a predator.
by dancing here and therIt has shallow roots that are spread out so that it can receive as much water as it can after a rainfall. It has 'thorns' that prevent animals from eating it. It also has a waxy covering to prevent water loss.
The general name is a succulent or a cactus.
Cactus have spongy tissue that absorb water. They are able to keep that water inside for long periods of time, because they do not perspire like other plants.
No, the thick outer layer of a cactus doesn't help a cactus reproduce. Its main purpose is the prevention of evaporation or water loss from the cactus' inside contents of water, nutrient solutions, and energizing photosynthetic products. Instead, the most common forms of reproduction among cactus plants tend to be by their seeds, their jointed parts falling off and rooting, or their baby offsets.

Cacti do not have leaves. The leaves have been replaced by spines.

It's water from a cactus! The cactus has collected that water!x
