Ecosystem And Biosphere

Xerophytes are adapted to survive in hot deserts where there is very little water. Xerophytes are common in coastal areas and thrive in saline water.

Goats, sheep and other herbivores are the primary consumers or heterotrophs. Any animal that eats primary consumers are the secondary consumers or heterotrophs.

Mesophytes are terrestrial plants which are adapted to neither a particularly dry nor particularly wet environment. An example of a mesophytic habitat would be a rural temperate meadow, which might contain goldenrod, clover, daisy, and Rosa multiflora.

Censor mechanism of seed dispersal is a type of dispersal by wind, which generally occur in poppy. Its seeds bear hairy fibers outside and are very light in weight, which aid in easy dispersal by wind.

Primary phloem develops from provascular tissue.

The nucleoid (meaning nucleus-like) is an irregularly-shaped region within the cell of a prokaryote that contains all or most of the genetic material. In contrast to the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell, it is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane.
