In order to survive in a non-aquatic environment, plants acquired several adaptations with specialized functions. Given below is a list of features/characteristics. (Column A) and their potential role (Column B).

Eduncle Best Answer

Waxy cuticle : A waxy layer known as the cuticle covers the leaves of all plant species. The cuticle reduces the rate of water loss from the leaf surface;
        Thickened or lignified cell walls : Sclerenchyma cells are characterized by relatively thick, lignified secondary cell walls. All plant cells initially have only a primary wall made predominantly of cellulose. As sclerenchyma develops, a secondary wall with a high proportion of lignin is deposited inside the primary wall. The lignified wall gives sclerenchyma cells their rigidity, and they function primarily in mechanical support and water conduction. They also make up most rigid parts of the plant (e.g., seed coats and some fruit walls) and are often positioned so that they provide mechanical protection for softer plant parts.;
        Homoiohydry : The ability of an organism to maintain a relatively stable water content independently of short-term fluctuations in water supply, Hydroids are imperforate water-conducting cells specific to advanced mosses;
        Pigmentation : photoprotection of photosystems II (PS II) is essential to avoid the light induced damage of the photosynthetic apparatus due to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which might induce photooxidative stress under excess light.
