Drought resistance refers to the ability of a plant, organism, or ecosystem to withstand periods of low water availability without suffering significant damage or loss of function. This can involve various physiological, biochemical, and structural adaptations that enable survival and growth under dry conditions. Drought-resistant species often exhibit traits such as deep root systems, reduced leaf surface area, or efficient water-use mechanisms. Such resilience is crucial for maintaining biodiversity and agricultural productivity in arid and semi-arid environments.
What else can I help you with?
How long does a drought last?
There is no time limit on how long a drought can last.
What does diode mean in a science?
A diode is an electronic component with the characteristic that its resistance is not constant, but depends on the magnitude of the current through it. An ideal diode has zero resistance to current in one direction, and infinite resistance to current in the reverse direction.
How would crops survive the drought?
well technically they can't survive without water but CSIRO is developing a liquid that will survive in a drought
What do you mean by non genetic resistance and how it is acquired?
Tolerance is acquired by compensatory mechanisms in the endocrine and nervous systems.
What does circut mean in science?
Circuit means a current of electricity going thruogh a power source and resistance.
What word means drought resistance?
xerophilous
Why are foods genetically engineered?
Variety of reasons - drought resistance, pest resistance, increase crop yield to name a few.
What does drought mean and what causes it?
A drought is an extended period of significantly below average precipitation in a region. NO, drought is a shortage of rainfall or dry weather!!!!!!!
When did the drought in sa start?
If, by "SA" you mean South Australia, the drought was declared in October 2002.
What variation do cactus's have?

What does la sequía mean in English?
It means: drought.
What does the word famine and drought mean?
Famine is a time of "no food". Drought is a time of "no rain". Drought often brings on famine since lack of water will affect the production of food.
Which of the following crosses would produce the highest corn yield with the highest resistance to drought?
Crossing two corn varieties that are known for high yield and drought resistance would likely produce a high-yielding and drought-resistant offspring. Look for varieties with proven track records in both traits to maximize the chances of success. Conducting field trials to assess performance under drought conditions can also help determine the most suitable crosses.
Give an example of domestication of plants?
Nearly every crop in commercial production could be considered domesticated if by domesticated you mean bred for a specific purpose or to enhance a particular trait such as higher yield, drought tolerance or disease resistance.
