What are some adaptations plants use to maintain homeostasis in order to survive?
A
Tropisms
B
Long Day
C
Annuals
D
all of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -What are five examples of homeostasis in plants? Plants must maintain their water balance, oxygen balance, carbon dioxide balance, temperature balance, and nutrient balance.

Detailed explanation-2: -Transpiration provides evaporative cooling. As water leaves the plant tissues into the atmosphere, it takes energy with it in the form of heat. Much like when we sweat, this allows the plant to cool and maintain homeostasis.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are three types of adaptation-structural adaptation, behavioural adaptation, and physiological adaptation.

Detailed explanation-4: -Spines or hairs shade plants and break up drying winds across the leaf/stem surface. The roots of desert plants are also adapted to help them survive. Some plants have shallow, widespread roots to absorb a maximum of rainfall moisture. Others have deep taproots to get water that is deep underground.
