What is the name given to plants that grows in desert conditions?
Plants that grow in arid conditions are called xerophytes. They have adapted to live with little water.
What adaptation is hibernating?
Hibernation is a behavioral adaptation. A behavioral adaptation is when a animal changes its behavior.

Cactus/Cacti, Grass, Bushes. That's all I can think of but you can use the link below for more.
How do you describe a desert as a habitat?
That question is unanswerable because the desert is a habitat.
What is significance of adaptation?

Xerophytes

What are plant adaptation that permit them to survive in a place with limited water supply?
Xerophytes are desert plants which grow in dry and hot places. They have long and deep roots for absorption of water. The stem of xerophytes contains water storage tissues. Stems of xerophytes possess caudex (swollen part of stem that stores water). The leaves are modified into spines to minimize loss of water by transpiration. Stem and leaves usually contain tomentose (plant hairs) to reduce transpiration. Plant hairs form coating called tomentum on the surface of leaves and stem. The leaves of xerophytes are covered by thick, waxy cuticle. Stomata are reduced in number and sucken below the epidermis. Stomata of xerophytes open at night.
Why is the stomata at the top for xerophytes?
Stomata are located on the top surface of xerophyte leaves to minimize water loss by reducing exposure to direct sunlight and wind. Placing stomata on the top surface helps create a more humid microenvironment around the stomata, reducing water loss through transpiration. This adaptation is crucial for xerophytes living in dry environments with limited water availability.
What type of plants does Peru have commonly?
xerophytes
What are desert plants also called?
xerophytes
What plants grow in dry areas?
xerophytes
Is root cap absent in xerophytes?
No, root caps are not absent in xerophytes. They are present in xerophytes just like in other plant species. Root caps are important for protecting the root apical meristem as the root grows through the soil, regardless of the plant's environment.
What are the physiological adaptations of halophytes?
same as xerophytes or most of it
Are Xerophytes extinct?
No...for example-cactus etc. can be fond..
