Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Needles will retain moisture and shed snow. The waxy coating on the tree needles prevents evaporation. The darkness of the needles helps to attract more sun. Many of the branches on evergreen trees droop down allowing the shedding of snow.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are three types of adaptation-structural adaptation, behavioural adaptation, and physiological adaptation.
Detailed explanation-3: -Vegetation: Needleleaf, coniferous (gymnosperm) trees are the dominant plants of the taiga biome. A very few species in four main genera are found: the evergreen spruce (Picea), fir (Abies), and pine (Pinus), and the deciduous larch or tamarack (Larix).
