Solution

The correct option is D deserts
Xerophytes are a group of plants that are adapted to survive in arid regions like desert and snow-covered areas. Xerophytes have stomata with microscopic openings and elongated leaves that store large amounts of water. Sometimes even their stems store water. They have deep-spreading roots that search for water.
