What reading level is Plant Life And Evolution book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Halophytes. Resembling in many respects the true xerophytes, are the Halophytes, or salt-marsh plants. Although they grow where there seems to Environment and Adaptation 203 be an abundance of moisture, these plants take up a relatively small amount, as the excess of salt dis- solved in the water is not favorable for their growth. Hence these plants show the fleshy habit characteristic of xerophytes. Plants growing along the seashore often show this same fleshy texture. Examples of these strand... plants are the ice-plants (Mesembryanthemum), sand verbena (Abronia), and sea-rocket (Cakile). LIGHT Modifications Associated with Photosynthesis As photosynthesis is the most important of the nu- tritive processes of the plant, it is not surprising that some of the most striking modifications of the plant-body are obviously associated with chloro- phyll work. In the cells of all of the algae there are present definite organized structures, chromato- phores, which are the essential photosynthetic or- gans, and the form and position of these is to a great extent correlated with the direction and the intensity of the light rays.
