    Plants have various defense mechanisms to protect themselves from threats in their environment. Cacti, for example, have sharp spikes covering their bodies that can hurt animals if they try to attack, while also storing water in their spongy tissue and only drinking small amounts to survive in dry conditions. Larger plants also provide shade and shelter for smaller plants and animals like snakes.

    world without plants? Have you ever
    wondered how some plants protect
    themselves from animals or other
    dangers?

    CACTUS

    protect it. This plant is the cactus.

    more than 100 types of catuses. The catsus
    has a defence mechanism. If an animal tries to
    attack it can use its spikes to hurt them.

    through its roots.
