Other common species include palo verde trees, which are Arizona\u2019s state tree, and ocotillo, known for its tall, spiny stems that bloom after rain. While Joshua trees are more prominent in the Mojave Desert, they can occasionally be found in transitional areas of the Sonoran Desert. These plants flourish in the intense heat and dry conditions of the desert ecosystem because they are evolved to store water.","mcq_options":[{"right":"no","answer":"Pine trees"},{"right":"yes","answer":"Joshua trees"},{"right":"no","answer":"Palm trees"},{"right":"no","answer":"Ferns"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":1846,"title":"Geography of the United States","slug":"geography-of-the-united-states"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":1865,"title":"Deserts of the united states","slug":"deserts-of-the-united-states"},{"id":1870,"title":"Sonoran Desert","slug":"sonoran-desert"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/13711","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3502"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13711"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13711"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=13711"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=13711"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
