Sample Question
Talk about Pine - part of coniferophytus. What type of environment is it adapted for? how?

The needle-like leaves of pine have a thin cuticle, making them well-suited for tropical rainforest environments.

The sporophyte generation of pine is a woody tree that is particularly well adapted to grow in a xerophytic (dry) environment. Canada's water supply is frozen for many months of each year, a climatic factor that simulates desert conditions. The needle-like leaves of pine have a very heavy cuticle, a thick walled epidermis, and deeply sunken stomata with overhanging cells to prevent desiccation and to slow down transpiration. Also, pine needles (leaves) do not accumulate snow. Imagine how a maple tree would weather a Montreal winter if it kept its leaves all year. Pines and most gymnosperms are indeciduous or "evergreen". In reality, the leaves drop after two years but not all at once. Their continuous presence permits photosynthesis to take place year-round whenever the temperature rises above 2oC. This gives evergreens a much longer growing season, a decided advantage over deciduous trees in northern climates.

Pine is adapted to grow in a cold, snowy environment by shedding its leaves in the winter to conserve energy.

The sporophyte generation of pine is adapted to grow in a marshy environment due to its ability to retain large amounts of water.
