Different types of cacti thrive in the deserts of North America. Some cacti have long, shallow roots that quickly absorb surface water, while others have deep roots that access underground water sources. These adaptations allow them to survive in harsh, dry environments. Based on the information provided, the root structures of these cacti are an example of —
A. adaptation
B. migration
C. predation
D. competition
A. Adaptation
organisms, known as producers in a food chain, capable of synthesizing their own food by a process known as photosynthesis; all plants and some forms of bacteria and other organisms
Autotrophs
