How are tropical plants such as bromeliads adapted to the biome in which they live?
They have long thick roots which helps them to gather the nutrients deep within the soil since there is little topsoil
they grow from tree branches rather than the forest floor which helps them to absorb more sunlight
they have hollow leaves and stems for storing water which helps them to survive during long periods of little or no rainfall
they lose their leaves during the winter, which helps them to save energy when the temperature falls and prevents the buildup of snow.
