Chapter 7: Adaptation of Plants to Different Habitats
What you need to learn in this chapter
In this chapter, we will be learning about the adaptation of plants to different habitats. We will classify plants based on their habitats and explain the characteristics of hydrophytes, halophytes, and xerophytes. We will study how these plants adapt to their environments in terms of water and mineral uptake, gas exchange, support, and photosynthesis. By understanding these adaptations, we will gain insights into how plants survive and thrive in various habitats.
