Solution

The correct option is C Animals urinate and sweat less, plants store water in their stems and some fold up their leaves so that the stomatal pores face inwards reducing transpiration
Living organisms both animals and plants, depend and interact with the key abiotic factor, water, for their survival. When water remains continuously scarce, animals like camels urinate and sweat less and plants store water in their stems and fold up the
leaves so that the stomatal pores face inwards, reducing transpiration. Some plants have leaves modified into spines to reduce transpiration.
