Answer

The vegetation of a place corresponds with its climate. The vegetation adapts to the climate of a place as can be seen by the following examples-

  1. Desert vegetation — The plants that grow in desert and semi-desert type of climate either have very thin leaves or no leaves. Their stems and leaves are often covered by sharp spines and they have long roots to draw water as the rainfall is very scarce.
  2. Tidal forest vegetation — Tidal forests have plants which are characterised by breathing roots which act as respiratory organs. The stilt like roots remain submerged underwater but can be seen during low tide. This tangled mass of root helps the plant to survive in the shifting mud of coastal region.
