Surface Area to Volume Ratios in Plants (Arid vs. Moist Environments)
The ability of plants to survive in certain environments depends on many abiotic factors such as the amount of water or light available. It is important to look at how these factors affect the growth and survival of plants in or ....

.... affects the surface area to volume ratios in plants. It is observed that plants in moist environments have more lush, larger foliage, while plants inhabiting desert conditions are generally smaller and have less photosynthetic surface areas.
Hypothesis:
Alternative Hypothesis: states the hypothesis being tested in this experiment. Photosynthetic structures of plants adapted to arid environments have a lower surface area to volume ratio than plants adapted to less dry or moist enviro ....
