2 Some plants are adapted for pollination by the wind, and some for pollination by insects. Plants adapted for insect pollination have colourful petals and nectar to attract the insects, and 'sticky' pollen that sticks to the insects that flowers. Plants pollination have small, can be carried by the When they visit the adapted for wind light pollen so that it wind. They have Feathery stigmas to catch the pollen. Plants / flowers

3 cactuscactus Cacti are well adapted for survival in the hot, dry conditions of a desert. Their rounded shape gives them a small surface area to volume ratio, which reduces water losses. They also have: a thick cuticle to reduce water losses green stems which can store water and photosynthesise widespread root systems, which can collect water from a large area long spines instead of leaves, which reduce water losses and protect against animals that might eat the plant
