2. They are able to survive in dry regions.

विकल्प

• (B) contradicts (A).

• (A) is the reason for (B).

• (A) is true but (B) is false.

• (A) and (B) are independent of each other.

Answer 1

(A) is the reason for (B).

Explanation:

Xerophytes develop remarkably long root systems that reach deep into the ground to access underground water tables. This specialised structural adaption allows them to absorb enough moisture, allowing the plants to survive and grow in arid, desert regions.
