what do plants need to survive?

1 of 6

from the soil, through their roots.
2 of 6
how can other plants get their water and nutrients from?
from the air, in their specially adapted leaves. So if the plant lives high above the ground making it difficult to get its water and nutrients from the soil, it can get it from the air

What could plants living in hot, dry conditions do to adapt and survive?
they could either reduce their surface area so that they lose less water or where they can store water in their tissues.

since they have long roots, they can go down a very long way or over a wide are so they can take as much water as possible from the soil
