How can a plant's adaptations help the organism to survive?

A plant's adaptations enhance its ability to survive in specific environments by optimizing resource use and minimizing stress. For instance, deep root systems enable access to water in arid conditions, while thick, waxy leaves reduce water loss. Specialized structures, such as spines in cacti, deter herbivores, and vibrant flowers attract pollinators for reproduction. These adaptations collectively improve a plant's resilience and reproductive success in its habitat.
