Wetlands Plants 
Floating Plants: These plants float on the surface of the water and do not have
roots anchored in the soil
...Marsh Plants: These plants grow in
shallow water or on the edges of wetlands and are adapted to fluctuating water levels
...
Desert Flora Heat Resistance flora include: Plant Adaptations Saguaro Cactus Large, ribbed stems for water storage;
shallow roots to capture rainfall quickly Barrel Cactus Globular shape for water storage; thick skin to reduce water loss Agave Plant Succulent
...
Arctic Tundra Vegetation and Ecosystem Health Some common adaptations include: Low-growing stature to minimize exposure to harsh winds
Shallow root systems to access nutrients in the thin layer of soil above the permafrost Ability to photosynthesize at low temperatures Ability to reproduce quickly during the short growing season Key
...Soil Stability: Plant
roots help to hold the soil in place, preventing erosion and maintaining the integrity of the landscape
...
Seasonal Changes in Tundra Ecosystems Plants start to senesce and prepare for winter by storing nutrients in their
roots ...Low-growing shrubs and grasses have
shallow root systems to access nutrients in the thin layer of soil above the permafrost
...
Desert Plants Characteristics iconic desert plants include: Plant Adaptations Saguaro Cactus Large, water-storing stem;
shallow, wide-spreading
roots Joshua Tree Deep taproot; thick, waxy leaves Barrel Cactus Globular shape for water storage; spines for protection
...
Wetlands and Their Soil Moisture Benefits Table: Plant Species Found in Wetlands Plant Species Adaptations Marsh Marigold
Shallow roots that can absorb nutrients from waterlogged soil Cattails Air-filled stems that allow them to float in water Water Lilies Large leaves that
...
Soil Characteristics This frozen layer limits the depth to which plant
roots can penetrate, affecting the overall productivity of tundra vegetation
...Many tundra plants have
shallow root systems that spread out horizontally to maximize nutrient uptake from the limited organic matter available
...
Southern Forests Vegetation Adaptations include: Buttress
roots for stability in the wet soil Thin, waxy leaves to reduce water loss through transpiration
Shallow root systems to access nutrients near the surface These adaptations allow the trees to thrive in the Southern Forests biome and compete for sunlight and resources with
...
Wetlands and Water Quality Improvement Processes The
roots of wetland plants also create a complex network that traps sediments and filters out pollutants, contributing to the overall health of the ecosystem
...Marshes Low-lying areas with
shallow water, characterized by grasses and reeds
...
Arctic Tundra Vegetation Adaptations and Responses Permafrost: Permafrost is a layer of permanently frozen soil that poses a challenge to plant
roots ...Tundra vegetation has
shallow root systems that can access nutrients and water near the surface without penetrating the frozen ground
