Match the following. Column A Column B 1. Coniferous trees (a) Water-soaked soil 2. Emergent plants (b) Deserts 3. Mangroves (c) Evergreen 4. Prickly pear (d) Marshy areas 5. Deciduous trees (e) Coastal areas 6. Rubber trees (f) Underwater 7. Tape grass (g) Soil poor in minerals 8. Insectivorous plants (h) Place with enough sunlight

1- (c), Coniferous trees usually find in cold and hilly places. Coniferous trees do not have leaves like a deciduous tree, and do not shed their leaves in winter. Hence, these trees are mostly evergreen trees. 2- (a), Emergent plants are found in water-soaked soil. These look like land plants. Common emergent plants are iris and pickerel weed. 3- (d), Marshy areas lie near the seashore where the rivers empty into the sea. The plants that grow here are called mangroves. 4- (b), Dessert areas get a little rainfall and have a few plants like cactus and prickly pear. These plants live on very little water and store what they get. 5- (e), In the plains, the plant can bear the heat and give shade in summer, but they shed their leaves in winter. These plants are called deciduous plants. 6- (h), These plants need plenty of water and sunlight. That is the reason rubber trees are found in coastal areas. These plants are also called evergreen as they do not shed their leaves. 7- (f), Tape grass is an underwater plant. Underwater plants live under the water. Their narrow leaves have no stomata at all. They breathe through their body surface. 8- (g), Some plants grow in soil which is poor in minerals. So, they eat insects to get enough nutritions. These type of plants are called insectivorous plants. Column A Column B 1. Coniferous trees (c) Evergreen 2. Emergent plants (a) Water-soaked soil 3. Mangroves (d) Marshy areas 4.
