Adaptation to Site: VIDEO/DVD, Plants, much more than animals, must adapt to the terrain, the climate, this or that local particularity of where they live, must modify their structure and behavior. This program shows the adaptations of plants that grow in walls, brassicas, sedges that grow at water’s edge and prevent beach erosion, plants that take in so much salt that they exude it through their leaves, and others that live in soil so poor they become carnivorous to survive; how insectivorous plants trap and digest their prey and attract without destroying the insects that pollinate them; different types of insectivores; plants that live in water and those that live in fire-ravaged terrain.
