In very dry environments, organisms often develop adaptations to conserve water and withstand extreme temperatures. Many plants, like cacti, have thick, waxy skins and deep root systems to minimize water loss and access underground moisture. Animals may exhibit behaviors such as being nocturnal to avoid daytime heat, while physiological adaptations include reduced water loss through specialized kidneys or the ability to store fat, which can be metabolized into water. These adaptations collectively enhance survival in harsh, arid conditions.

What is the difference between adaptations and evolving?
Evolving means change that is passed on. While adaptations means to live with the environment. What you do to keep warm or what you do to keep dry. This is learned behavior.
What biotic adaptations have desert plants made to address the abiotic factors in their environment?
Deserts are abiotic because there is much that is not living in them. Plants have adapted to live on very little water, store water, and live in very hot and dry conditions.
Why does a camel have very dry poo?
There is scarcity of water in desert so a camel have the adaptations of excreting dry dung.
What is a dry region without trees?
A dry region without trees or water is called a desert. Plants and animals need special adaptations in order to survive in this harsh environment.

What are some adaptations of coastal desert plants that allow them to thrive in their harsh environment?
Coastal desert plants have adaptations like deep root systems to access water, thick waxy coatings to reduce water loss, and small leaves to minimize water loss through evaporation. These adaptations help them survive in the hot and dry conditions of their environment.
