Vedclass · Answer

(A) Alpine plants are found at high altitudes where the temperature is very low.Due to the freezing temperatures,water in the soil often remains in the form of ice.Since plants cannot absorb water in the form of ice,they experience physiological drought.To survive under these conditions of water scarcity,these plants develop adaptations similar to xerophytes (plants adapted to dry environments),such as reduced leaf size or thick cuticles,to minimize water loss.Therefore,they exhibit $Xerophytism$.
