hot temperatures evaporate water so the cactus must make sure he can contain all of his water within him without having porous leaves (instead he has spines) to release the water. He uses the skin to undergo photosynthesis instead of the leaves that other plants use.
Temperature
Water temperature is NOT a common limiting factor. Temperature can affect the rate of biological processes, but it is not typically a limiting factor in the same way that things like sunlight availability or nutrient availability can be for ecosystems.
Temperature is a density-independent limiting factor for rainbow trout. Changes in water temperature can directly impact the metabolism, growth, and behavior of rainbow trout, regardless of the population density or size.
not under normal temperatures; sunlight is harmful when the temperature is high
A limiting factor is a factor that limits the growth, distribution, or abundance of a population in an ecosystem. Examples include food availability, competition for resources, predation, disease, and environmental conditions such as temperature or water availability.
Temperature is a limiting factor for cactus plants, in terms of extremes of heat and cold. For example, desert cactus plants are used to a hot, dry climate. But temperatures may be so high that the available water evaporates.It particularly is the other extreme, of chilling temperatures, that may be fatal for a cactus. Cold may leave a cactus with a range of problems from stem tip damage to actual stem collapse. Cactus plants that are exposed to excess cold or dampness are prone to rot, which softens and blackens tissue.
cacti can hold large amounts of water for long periods of time, so it doesn't need as much rain and when it is hot it can replenish itself just as much as it needs to survive.

Temperature occurs no matter what the size shape or color of the population is, just like hurricanes, wildfires, and earthquakes therefore it is a density-INDEPENDANT limiting factor. Over
A chameleon's limiting factor could be its ability to regulate body temperature, as they are ectothermic and rely on external sources of heat to maintain their internal temperature. Another limiting factor could be their specialized diet requirements, as they primarily feed on insects and need a varied diet to stay healthy. Environmental factors such as habitat destruction and climate change can also be limiting factors for chameleons.
Water availability is the main limiting factor in desert biomes. The scarcity of water restricts the growth and distribution of plant and animal species in these arid environments. Additionally, extreme temperatures and lack of nutrients contribute to the harsh conditions that limit the biological productivity of desert ecosystems.
Water, or the lack of water, has the greatest effect on cacti.
