What else can I help you with?
C4 plants occur more commonly in desert conditions because?
C4 plants are more efficient at photosynthesis and use less water compared to C3 plants, making them better adapted to arid environments. Their unique carbon fixation pathway allows them to minimize water loss through transpiration, giving them a competitive advantage in dry conditions like deserts.
How do plants in the desert make food?
Plants in the desert make food through photosynthesis, a process in which they use sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose (sugar) for energy. These plants often have adaptations like deep root systems, succulent tissues, and reduced leaves to conserve water and survive in the arid conditions of the desert.
Why photosynthesis takes place early in the morning in many desert plants?
Using an alternative C4 pathway, desert plants photosynthesize early in the morning in order to generate energy when it is cooler and more moist. Later in the day photosynthesis slows and stomata close in order to conserve moisture.
Why save the desert biome?
because we need to. what if you were hit with nuclear weapons? what if you had no water? It's mostly because that the desert is very interesting. A lot of scientists would probably love to be able to study the different plants and animals of the desert.
Why are there no tall trees in the desert?
Desert environments typically have limited water availability, which affects plant growth. Tall trees require ample water to sustain their height and large root systems. In deserts, plants have adapted to conserve water, leading to the prevalence of shorter and drought-tolerant vegetation like shrubs and cacti.
Where can you get water from to drink in the desert?
Some cactuses in the desert have water in them
How do barrel cactuses reproduce in the desert?
By seed.
What are the examples of exotic desert fruits?
cactuses
What vegetation regions has low bushes and cactuses?
The desert.
What are plants in the Syrian Desert?
cactuses ironwood and bushes
Are cacti in the desert really alive?
Yes Cactuses are Alive because it is a Plant and Plants are Living Things so the Science Theory Proves that Cactuses are Alive in the Desert.
What kind of vegetation lives in the desert?
well it depends on which desert but mostly cactuses and weeds
Do any animals in the desert make their own food?
cactuses
How many cactuses make up a desert?
A desert need not have ANY cacti to be called a desert. A desert is simply a large region that is rather dry.
C4 plants occur more commonly in desert conditions because?
C4 plants are more efficient at photosynthesis and use less water compared to C3 plants, making them better adapted to arid environments. Their unique carbon fixation pathway allows them to minimize water loss through transpiration, giving them a competitive advantage in dry conditions like deserts.
What are some of the land features in the desert?
sand dunes, rocks, cactuses trees, wadis (type of occasional river)
What is the nutritional pattern of a primary consumer in the food chain?
The answer is number 3 (prickly pear cactuses- Desert rats) :)
