Vedclass · Answer

(B) Plants growing in xeric habitats exhibit various adaptations to minimize water loss.$I$. Nerium is a classic xerophyte that possesses sunken stomata in the lower epidermis of its leaves to reduce transpiration.$II$. Calotropis is a non-succulent xerophyte that survives in dry conditions through structural adaptations.$III$. Peperomia is a leaf succulent that stores water in its leaf epidermal cells.$IV$. Ammophila (Marram grass) is a monocot,not a dicot,that curls its leaves to minimize water loss.$V$. Tribulus is an ephemeral plant that completes its life cycle during the rainy season; it does not store water in its stem.Therefore,pairs $I, II,$ and $III$ are correct.

$I$. Nerium	Sunken stomata	Lower epidermis of leaves to reduce loss of water
$II$. Calotropis	Non-succulent	Root cells with thickened cell walls
$III$. Peperomia	Leaf succulent	Leaf epidermal cell,store water
$IV$. Ammophila	Dicot	Curl their leaves to minimise loss of water
$V$. Tribulus	Ephemeral	Water is stored in stem
