This is part of my Biology assignment

oh by the way, are succulents a plant species ?

sorry if I'm really dumb on this but hey, nobody's perfect

they are indeed plants; one of the botanists here works on them. Google around and you should find what you need; Wikipedia has some decent pages on them too.

A little off topic, but I just bought a succulent plant from lowes called a split rock plant. Coolest little thing I ever saw.

Jee, I haven't been on this in a long time.

Succulents are indeed plants, and they're so..succulent to let them thrive in arid conditions. They retain water so they can survive long dry periods, as well as survive areas with high levels of dissolved minerals.

They're found in dry areas of the tropics and subtropics, as well as on sea coasts and around salt pans.

Just Google succulent plant, you'll find a ton of things on them. They have numerous other adaptions to their habitat that you could include in your Biology assignment.

Hope this helps.

WHOO! split rock plant.

 

...and... other boring succulent plants...
