Tundra & Polar Environments: Adaptations of Plants in Cold Environments 🥶 GCSE Geography Learning & Revision
In this episode, we discuss the adaptations of plants in cold environments.
Tundra plants have developed several key adaptations to thrive in their harsh environment.
To endure extremely low temperatures and strong winds, many species enter periods of dormancy, ceasing growth during the coldest times.
Their typically small size and leaves help them conserve resources and find shelter closer to the ground.
Due to the presence of permafrost, these plants generally possess shallow root systems.
Finally, rather than relying on seeds, many tundra plants utilise underground structures like bulbs and runners for more successful reproduction.
