Q.

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.
