The !nara plant (Acanthosicyos horridus) has several adaptations that enable it to thrive in arid environments, particularly in Namibia's Namib Desert. Its thick, fleshy leaves and stems store water, allowing it to survive prolonged dry periods. The plant also has sharp spines to deter herbivores and reduce water loss by minimizing surface area exposed to the sun. Additionally, its deep root system helps it access groundwater, ensuring survival in harsh conditions.
