The tropical rainforest does not have thick waxy needles. The coniferous forest has thick waxy needles so that water on the needles wont easily be evaporated.
This is a desert biome.
yes
Not all leaves have a waxy surface, but some do. Plant cuticles are a protective waxy covering produced only by the epidermal cells of leaves, young shoots and all other aerial plant organs without periderm.
Examples of plants with a waxy cuticles are: the Agave, several types of cacti, and aloe. Basically it is any plant which has a thick waxy skin. The wax aids in the prevention of water loss. and ballsuckers
The cuticle means outer layer. It can be considered an external envelope as in an insect. Or a fatty waxy film scene in plants. This also in humans accumulates at the base and sides of the fingernail. It's function is to protect.
There are several adaptations a plant must have to be able to survive in the tundra biome. They must be small, grow close together, and close to the ground.

Desert plants have well developed vascular tissue and root system, have latex in the body, spiny, waxy and cuticularized surface to minimize water loss by transpiration.

The primary adaptation of flowering plants is pollination, which enable them to thrive on land. They also have waxy cuticles to reduce water loss, the stomata to absorb sunlight and specialized cells for rigid support.

The answer you are looking for is Cuticle (a waxy lipid covering plants)
The coniferous trees of Taiga biome have needle like dark green leaves, stem with thick bark and leaves with waxy covering to resist extremely cold winters. These plants are evergreen with very thick plant stand and conical canopy.
A few desert plants have a waxy coating that helps protect them from the heat and dry air of the dessert. These plants include some varieties of Yucca trees, Creosote and Beavertail Cactus. The waxy coating blocks the plants pores, trapping the moisture inside to prevent them from drying out.
