How do the thickness of the cuticle and the number of stomata differ in plants from wet habitats versus dry habitats? Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins.A. have a relatively large number of stomata B. Plants from wet habitats. C. Plants from dry habitats.
Plants from wet habitats have a relatively large number of stomata and thin cuticle
Plants from dry habitats have a less number of stomata and thick cuticle
Stomata helps in exchange of gases whereas cuticle reduces the loss of water
If water is more then plants have large number of stomata which helps in great access to water and increases support for herbaceous tissues
In case of dry habitat conditions are not favorable with regard to water hence a thick cuticle is required to minimize the water loss while in wet habitat water is abundant hence they have a thin cuticle
A.Vascular plants have a relatively large number of stomata
B. Plants from wet habitats include white lotus,water lily
C. Plants from dry habitats include xerophytes for example cactus,oleander
