A conifer leaf is a needle-like structure found on conifer trees such as pine, spruce, and fir. They are adapted to conserve water through a thick waxy cuticle on their surface, reduced surface area to minimize water loss, and sunken stomata that reduce water loss through transpiration. These adaptations help conifer trees survive in dry and cold environments.
