Ans.

Plants that live in a fire-prone biome show various adapations that make them suitable to survive frequent fires. These adaptations include presence of thick bark to minimize heat damage, epicormic buds (buds present inside the tree bark) that become active and grow due to environmental stress, fire-stimulated germination and flowering, heat-resistant seeds that break their dormancy after sometime of fire, and fire-resistant roots that quickly resprout in recently burned regions.
