Detailed explanation-3: -Types of Adaptation in Plants There are three types of adaptation-structural adaptation, behavioral adaptation, and physiological adaptation.
Detailed explanation-4: -The reduced surface area of leaves. The thick cuticle on leaves reduces water loss. Some plants have stomata only on the lower side. Succulent plants store water to survive dry weather. More items
