The plants, which grow under water stress conditions of deserts are - |
| A. | Epiphytes |
| B. | Xerophytes |
| C. | Heliophytes |
| D. | Sciophytes |
| Answer» B. Xerophytes | |
|
Explanation: The term xerophyte refers to a plant species that has evolved over time to adapt to dry regions like deserts. Xerophytes have adapted to be able to keep extremely large amounts of water for a long period of time. Without this capability, the plant would die, as the desert region itself does not provide enough water to sustain life. |
