| 159140009 | Plant adaptations | thick bark ex: redwood, Douglas fur, epicormic sprouting: latent buds on truck open up after a fire on truck and branches, ex: pitch pine, coastal redwood, live oak, and eucalyptus trees, lignotubers: swelling btn the shoot and root have buds and reserve food. The soil protects this area from fire heat ex: Chamise, Trembling Aspen, Paper Birch, scarification: heat stimulates certain seeds to germinate, following fire ex: jack pine, loblolly pine, serotinous cones: jack pines and lodgepole pine have cones that remain viable for 25-75 years. The fire melts the resin that holds the cones shut. Cones that need fire to release seeds can hold them for 25-30 years. | 68 |
