They have broad flat leaves and can transpire 200 gallons of water per day. Many succulent plants live in hot, arid environments and have thick leaves with a wax-like substance covering their leaves.

Using your understanding of transpiration, find the adaptations that allow these plants to survive in their respective environments.arrow_forward
