The cuticle is very thick in aquatic plants and desert plants as a protective adaptation to their respective environments. In aquatic plants, a thicker cuticle helps prevent the loss of water due to evaporation, while also providing some protection from pathogens in the water. In desert plants, a thick cuticle serves to minimize water loss in an environment where moisture is scarce, helping them retain internal hydration. Both adaptations ensure that these plants can survive and thrive in their challenging habitats.
