The cactus has evolved to live in areas with little rainfall. They have lost there leaves and in their place have grown spines which cut down on water loss. The spines also provide some protection from animals that might be tempted to eat the plant. Some cacti have dense spine coverage that help shade the plant from intense sunlight.

Does a cactus live through a drought?
Plants need water to survive, which is an idea you're probably already pretty familiar with. But a cactus is known for being able to live with very, very little water!Cactuses (sometimes also called "cacti") are a type of plant called a "succulent," and are best known for living in hot, dry places like the desert, where they do not get a lot of water. Cactuses do need some water to survive, but can get along with a lot less than most plants.One reason cactuses can get along with less water is because they don't have leaves, so the water a cactus drinks does not evaporate as much as the water other plants drink. Additionally,cactuses have thick stalks which allow them to store water for a long time and roots that are good at finding and soaking up water even when its scarce!
