Tundra plant life is characterized by its resilience to harsh conditions and includes species such as mosses, lichens, dwarf shrubs, and grasses. Common examples include Arctic moss, reindeer lichen, and various types of sedges and willows. These plants have adapted to the short growing seasons and permafrost, often exhibiting low growth forms to withstand strong winds and cold temperatures. Their growth is typically slow, but they play crucial roles in the tundra ecosystem by providing food and habitat for various wildlife.
