Well, if you're talking about hot countries, or ones near the equatore (hence 'dry season') then I guess you mean plants that are adapted to survive in that kind of climate. Cactuses have swollen stems to store water and spiny leaves to prevent water loss. Some plants are just common and don't need very much maintenence and water, and just die out a little, then come back when there's more water. Other plants could possibly begin their lives draining the life out of other plants nearby. That's all I can think of. Hope this helped!

How do plants and animals cope with seasonal stress?

Plants cope with seasonal stress by adjusting their growth processes, such as shedding leaves or slowing down growth during cold or dry seasons. Animals cope by adapting their behavior, such as migrating to warmer areas or hibernating during cold seasons, or storing food during plentiful times to survive scarcity. Both plants and animals have evolved various mechanisms to survive and thrive in different seasons.


What plants that can be planted during dry seasons?

Plants that can tolerate dry conditions include succulents like cacti and aloe vera, as well as drought-resistant perennials such as lavender, rosemary, and sage. These plants have adaptations that help them thrive in arid environments by storing water or having deep root systems to access water deep in the soil.


Why do some trees retain their leaves instead of them falling off during certain seasons?

Some trees, like evergreen trees, retain their leaves because they have adapted to survive in cold or dry conditions. Keeping their leaves helps them continue photosynthesis and conserve energy during harsh seasons.


What type of plants are adapted to hot dry conditions?

Cacti, pineapples, agaves, and geraniums are some plants that are adapted to hot, dry conditions. They would all survive well in the desert.

What kind of plants do not thrive in dry forests?

Plants that need ample water and those without adaptations would not thrive in dry forests. To survive in a dry forests, plants must have the adaptation of deciduousness, dropping its leaves once the rains end, which halts photosynthesis which produces water losses which causes the plant not to survive in the dry season. Some plants have other adaptations, such as green bark, which allows photosynthesis to continue even when the leaves have been dropped, and others have water storage tissues that allow them to survive during the dry season by drawing on the stored water. Others have an extra, waxy layer on their leaves that slows water evaporation, and others close their leaves at night which slows water loss.


Why do rainforest plants need a dry adaptation?

Plants in certain rain forests require certain adaptation due to the amount of rainfall received and the seasonality of the rainfall. For example rainforests in sub-tropical region receive seasonal rainfall, this means that when it rains (in the wet season) it pours, but there is also a "dry" season where it still rains, but much less. For this reason the plants have to be adapted to be able to survive in both conditions. Equatorial rainforests receive pretty much constant rainfall throughout the year, so the plants are adapted for this


Which crops are least affected where there is no rain?

All crops need water to survive, but there are a few that can survive a bit longer in times of dry weather. Among the types of plants that are least affected by droughts are olives. Olives can survive well in dry climates and through dry spells in the weather.


How does bamboo survive during dry spell in southern China and Japan?

Bamboo can survive dry spells in China and Japan by its complex root system. During a dry spell bamboo will store food and water deep in its roots.


What causes wet and dry seasons in the tropics?

Wet and dry seasons in the tropics are primarily caused by the movement of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), which is a low-pressure belt where trade winds converge. During the wet season, the ITCZ shifts towards the summer hemisphere, bringing abundant rainfall. In the dry season, the ITCZ moves away from the region, leading to less rainfall. Other factors like monsoons and oceanic currents can also influence the variation between wet and dry seasons in the tropics.
