Thousands of mods for the game have been created, with some mods even generating an income for their authors.

  3. Rhizoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhizoid

    In water or near it, plants could absorb water from their surroundings, with no need for any special absorbing organ or tissue. Additionally, in the primitive states of plant development, tissue differentiation and division of labor were minimal, thus specialized water-absorbing tissue was not required.

  4. Xerophyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xerophyte

    Plants absorb water from the soil, which then evaporates from their shoots and leaves; this process is known as transpiration.If placed in a dry environment, a typical mesophytic plant would evaporate water faster than the rate of water uptake from the soil, leading to wilting and even death.

  5. Bryophyte - Wikipedia

    However, if this phylogeny is correct, then the complex sporophyte of living vascular plants might have evolved independently of the simpler unbranched sporophyte present in bryophytes. [25] Furthermore, this view implies that stomata evolved only once in plant evolution, before being subsequently lost in the liverworts.

  6. Tillandsia - Wikipedia

    Now the plant can absorb more light. When the sun dries the plants, they turn white. Thanks to this special survival trick, plants without roots can absorb fog droplets as well as rainwater and thus cover their water needs. [18] More than one-third of a tropical forest's vascular plants are epiphytes which species of Tillandsia are part of.

  7. Aquatic plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic_plant

    Aquatic plants require special adaptations for prolonged inundation in water, and for floating at the water surface. The most common adaptation is the presence of lightweight internal packing cells, aerenchyma , but floating leaves and finely dissected leaves are also common.

  8. Absorption of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_of_water

    Absorption of water-Plants generally absorb capillary water from the soil through their roots. The diffusion pressure deficit in a cell of a leaf is developed because of transpiration then water from the adjacent cell moves towards the cell in the same way diffusion pressure deficit is developed in the second cell and water moves to it from the ...

  9. Plant nutrients in soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nutrients_in_soil

    As plants absorb the nutrients from the soil water, the soluble pool is replenished from the surface-bound pool. The decomposition of soil organic matter by microorganisms is another mechanism whereby the soluble pool of nutrients is replenished – this is important for the supply of plant-available N, S, P, and B from soil.
