How do some plants grow and survive in the harshest environments like the dessert or under water

Adaptation

Explanation:

Some plants grow and survive in the harshest environments like the desert or underwater by adapting to the environment. For example, some plants in the desert have thick, waxy skin to reduce loss of water and to reflect heat. They also have large, fleshy stems to store water.  Also, specific plants like cacti in the desert have spikes to protect them from animals wishing to use stored water. These adaptations help them to grow and survive in the desert.

In the ocean, plants have adapted to absorb all the water and carbon dioxide they need from the water they live in. Just as cacti have adapted to live in brutally hot deserts, ocean plants have adapted to deal with things like ocean tides and the salinity (or salt levels) of the water around them. Many ocean plants cling tightly to rocks in order to avoid being swept away by ocean tides.
