Yes because they have more room to collect rain drops then the rain drops drip down to there roots so, yes they do get more water with larger and flatter leaves
Cacti are desert plants adapted to arid conditions, characterized by thick, fleshy stems that store water, while lotuses are aquatic plants that thrive in water gardens and are known for their large, beautiful flowers and floating leaves. Additionally, cacti typically have spines instead of leaves to reduce water loss, whereas lotuses have broad, flat leaves that emerge above the water's surface.
One common plant with round leaves is the lily pad, which belongs to the water lily family. These large, flat, circular leaves float on the surface of water bodies. Another example is the pennywort (Hydrocotyle), known for its distinctively round, coin-shaped leaves. Both plants are often found in wetland areas and contribute to their ecosystems.
the surface area of LEAVES depends. Pine needles and cacti have small surface areas banana leaves, philodendron leaves, and other tropical plants have gigantic ones. it all depends on where the plants are endemic to.
Aquatic plants like water hyacinth and lotus float on water primarily due to their specialized structures, including air-filled cavities in their stems and leaves, which provide buoyancy. These adaptations allow them to remain on the water's surface, maximizing their exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis. Additionally, their broad, flat leaves help distribute their weight evenly, further enhancing their ability to float.
For most plants, but not all, the leaves are the main place where energy is trapped from the sun. The leaves have a broad surface (flat shape) to catch as much of the sun as they can.
The leaves on a water lily give a large surface area for photosynthesis as much of the rest of the plant is underwater.
The rainforest plants have big flat leaves so they can absorp lots of water.The desert plants don't have big flat leaves.

Moss plants have small, flat, thin leaves
needle-like leaves
Plants with leaves typically have green, flat structures that are used for photosynthesis. They also have a network of veins for transporting water and nutrients. Leaves are usually attached to stems and can vary in size, shape, and texture. Additionally, many plants with leaves undergo a process called transpiration, where they release water vapor through small openings called stomata.

The flat surface area of leaves are just because leaves have a function to perforn i.e. photosynthesis and the flat area increases the availability of sunlight which is a mandatory reuirement for the process.
no
they had flat teeth for eating leaves and plants
Many desert plants have flat leaves so your question is invalid.
Leaves are broad, thin and flat to provide a large surface area, to absorb sunlight for photosynthesis. :)
