HOW CACTUS AND BROMELIADS CAN GROW WELL UNDER DRY CONDITION?
![Page 3: Presentation pbl by chinchilla](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54b7c6b84a7959104c8b47dd/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Cacti -most water-resourceful plants in the world Pineapple- highly tolerant of drought.
Drought tolerant refers to the degree to which a plant is adapted
to arid or drought conditions. drought tolerant plants typically make use of
either C4 carbon fixation / crassulacean acis metabolism (CAM) to fix carbon during photosynthesis.
Both cactus and bromeliads are CAM plants.

WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTIC OF CACTUS AND BROMELIADS?
![Page 5: Presentation pbl by chinchilla](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54b7c6b84a7959104c8b47dd/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
THE CHARACTERISTICS THAT HELP THEM TO SURVIVE IN DROUGHT.
Cactuses Criteria Bromeliads
Leaves on most cacti are absent or extremely tiny
Leaves ~The epidermis of leaf is especially thick and tough to resist damage and desiccation.~A special layer of water storage cells on the underside of the leaf that act as a reserve in times of water stress~have tiny scales on their leaves called trichomes.
The cactus stem serves as the plant's main photosynthetic organ and is used for water storage
Stem Have distinctive, water-absorbing scales
. Their thinness and large surface area
make the scales ideal for rapidly absorbing
water.

Cactuses Criteria Bromeliads
Cactus roots help to gather and preserve water in several ways .
Roots Able to resist wilting
open their stomates at night rather than during the day in hot or dry climates(CAM Photosynthesis)
Stomata Opens its stomata during the night rather than the daytime(CAM Photosynthesis)
•Spines•Skin
Others •Xerophytes

BROMELIADS LEAVES Unique shape and arrangement of the leaves of
bromeliads. Wide and deeply U-shaped where they join the stem,
forming a series of vessel-like compartments. When it rains, water flows down the leaves and pools in
the compartments, where it can be absorbed by the umbrella scales.
Remarkable "tank plants" - Nidularium and Billbergia. Greatly reduced stem & densely packed leaves have broad, overlapping bases, resulting in a pitcher or vase-like center-the tank. Rainwater fills the tank ,as the tank is shaded by the dense crown of leaves around it, the water does not evaporate quickly and can persist, enabling the plant to survive periods of drought

CACTUSES ROOTS
Shallow & extensive root systems Spread laterally away from the plant. Maximize water intake from a large area.
Change characteristics as the water supply fluctuates. Existing dehydrated roots become more water
conductive after rainfall. Formation of new rain roots to help soak up water. In times of drought, the rain roots shrivel and fall
off .The existing roots dehydrate. The shrinkage of the existing roots creates an air gap
that helps to prevent water in the roots from escaping back to the soil.
A corky layer on the roots also helps to prevent water loss.

SPINES OF CACTUS Spines help the cactus in several ways.
Protection against foragers. Water from dew condenses on spines and, in some
cactus species, downward-pointing spines help to direct rainwater to the roots of the plant.
Reflect light away from the cactus stem theoretically lowering the stem temperature.
Trap in a layer of air next to the cactus stem preventing loss of water via evaporative cooling.

SKIN OF CACTUS
Translucent & acts as the first line of defense against fungi, bacteria, and foraging animals.
The skin has two parts: the epidermis and the hypodermis. The skin's hypodermis layer provides mechanical support for
the plant. A waxy layer of cells known as the cuticle covers the
skin’s epidermis. The wax in the cuticle helps the stem to hold in its water
vapor reducing water loss. Waxy cuticle is also lightly colored and reflects some of the
incident light. Contains numerous stomata
(However, is less than the number for normal plants - another water-saving characteristic.)

XEROPHYTES Possess many of the usual, water-conserving
adaptations of such plants: A thick epidermis covered with wax Water-storage cells that cause the leaves to
appear succulent (that is thick and fleshy Sheathing leaf bases.
