What are the xerophytic adaptations of ammophilia?

Answer 1

Ammophilia is a grass like plant. Its xerophytic adaptations make it easy for the plant to adapt to shifting sand conditions, high winds, and water when oceans overflow during hurricanes.

Answer 2

Ammophila, also known as beach grass, has xerophytic adaptations to thrive in sandy, arid environments. These adaptations include deep root systems to access water deep in the soil, narrow leaves to reduce water loss through transpiration, and a waxy cuticle on leaves to prevent water loss. Additionally, some species of Ammophila have rolled leaves to further minimize water loss.
