Most land plants and trees have strong, woody stems to hold up their branches and leaves to get sufficient sunlight. Some plants however have soft, non-woody stems and cannot grow upright. So they need to have special adaptations to get their leaves in the best position to obtain sunlight. Such plant can be grouped as "creepers" or "climbers."
CREEPERS:Creepers grow horizontally on the ground. Their shoots spread out on all sides of the main stem. Carpet grass and minosa are examples of creepers.
CLIMBERS:Climbers climb onto supports such as walls, fences or other plants that have strong stems. Some climbers have tendrils or clasping roots to attach themselves to the supports.

What will be an adaptation in a rain forest but not in a desert?
Having large leaves to capture sunlight in low-light conditions is an adaptation in a rainforest that would not be suitable in a desert where water conservation is more critical.
What are some of the struggles plants may face in obtaining daily needs?
Plants may struggle with obtaining daily needs such as water, sunlight, and nutrients due to factors like drought, limited sunlight exposure, poor soil quality, competition from other plants, and pests. These challenges can affect a plant's growth, development, and overall health.
Which animals use photosynthesis as a means of obtaining energy?
No animals use photosynthesis as a means of obtaining energy. Photosynthesis is a process used by plants, algae, and some bacteria to convert sunlight into energy. Animals obtain energy by consuming plants, other animals, or other organic matter.
How does the morning glory adapt to receive enough sunlight?
Morning glory plants exhibit phototropism, meaning they grow towards sources of light. They have flexible stems that allow them to reorient themselves to face the sun throughout the day. This adaptation helps them maximize their exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis.
Do truffles photosynthesis?
No, truffles do not photosynthesize. Truffles are fungi that grow underground in a symbiotic relationship with tree roots, obtaining nutrients from the trees rather than from sunlight like plants do.
Which would be an adaptation in a rainforest but not in the Arctic?
Having large leaves to capture sunlight in the rainforest would be an adaptation, as it allows plants to maximize photosynthesis. This adaptation would not be as effective in the Arctic due to the lack of sunlight.
What are the adaptation of hibiscus?

Do plants grow better on direct sunlight limited sunlight are no sun light?
Direct Sunlight, but they can survive in limited with an adaptation called geotropism where the plant grows towards the light
Which adaptation would be seen in plants in this biome?
They have to have sunlight and water in order to live in temperate biomes...
What are the adaptation of vines?
Vines are invasive as an adaptation because the plant is hardy designed to take over in order to thrive. The major adaptation of the vine is it grows in an upward direction to have access to sunlight in order for it to make food for itself.

Name the adaptation by 2 plants needed to survive the abiotic conditios in a coral reef?
sunlight and the right temperature
What is a method for obtaining energy?
One method for obtaining energy is through the process of capturing and converting sunlight into electricity using solar panels. Solar energy is a renewable and sustainable source of energy that does not produce greenhouse gas emissions.
