FAQs on Adaptations in Plants - 2 Class 6 Worksheet Science

$1. What are the different types of adaptations in plants?
Ans.Plants have various adaptations, including structural adaptations (like thorns and waxy leaves), physiological adaptations (like water storage in succulents), and behavioral adaptations (like the movement of sunflowers towards sunlight).
$2. How do adaptations help plants survive in their environment?
Ans.Adaptations help plants survive by enabling them to thrive in their specific habitats. For example, cacti have thick, fleshy stems to store water, while plants in cold climates may have thicker leaves to resist frost.
$3. Can you give examples of plants with unique adaptations?
Ans.Examples include the Venus flytrap, which catches insects for nutrients, and the mangrove tree, which has specialized roots to thrive in salty water and tidal conditions.
$4. Why do desert plants have adaptations like thorns and waxy surfaces?
Ans.Desert plants have these adaptations to reduce water loss and protect themselves from herbivores. Thorns deter animals from eating them, while waxy surfaces help retain moisture.
$5. How do aquatic plants adapt to life in water?
Ans.Aquatic plants have adaptations such as flexible stems to withstand water currents, air-filled spaces for buoyancy, and broad leaves to capture sunlight efficiently under water.
