Question

1. which ecosystem is known for supporting species that are highly specialized for water conservation? a. deserts b. boreal forests c. marine environments d. wetlands

Explanation:

Deserts have arid conditions with limited water. Species in deserts evolve specialized adaptations (e.g., succulent plants, water - conserving behaviors in animals) to survive with scarce water. Boreal forests have more water availability, marine environments are aquatic (water is abundant, not a conservation focus here), and wetlands are water - rich. So deserts are known for species specialized in water conservation.

Answer:

a. Deserts
