Plants and animals can be said to have similar needs,because both require water,food,and minerals for growth and survival.In plants,water enters the root through root hairs and then moves through the root cortex into the vascular tissue and into the shoots.The endodermis,with Casparian strips in the endodermal cells,controls entry into the vascular cylinder.
-Plant diversity is very high in the tropics,but plants are found in the many different biomes and show specific adaptations to cold,hot,wet,and dry environments.You are working in a greenhouse and have just received a large shipment of desert plants.Which feature/characteristic would you not find in your desert plants?
