While observing the Aloe vera plant, Dev found that it is different from a Balsam plant in appearance. What are the modifications he could find in the Aloe vera plant?

The correct options are
B Succulent stems
C Reduced leaves
$\bullet$ Over a certain time period organisms adapt themselves to different conditions for better survival.
$\bullet$ In aloe vera the leaves are reduced to spines so that there is little transpiration loss and water is stored in the tissues of the stem making it fleshy or succulent. This helps the plant to live in conditions of water scarcity.
