Aerophiles

The mysterious atmosphere of planet Earth consists of different layers through which heat and moisture seep at different rates. At some times it retains heat, and at others it provides enough oxygen. And we know all this only thanks to the living little world that breathes “in the shadow” of our blue planet.

“The sky is not a simple space,” said Albert Einstein. The orange glow of a sunset or the mesmerizing fields of dawn are the result of the mutual penetration of electromagnetic waves of two different frequencies. We are a creation of the world without even knowing it. And today we will try to plunge into this mysterious world with aerophilic organisms.

Aerophilic plants are located above the snow line and receive insufficient sunlight. They prefer a thinner atmosphere, which allows them to use light efficiently. As plants get taller, the atmosphere becomes thinner, so they can receive more light.

Some aerophilic plants are known for their unusual leaf shapes, which allow them to catch extra rays of light. For example, mimosa leaves have a fan-shaped shape, which helps redirect the sun's rays to their surface. Some aerophilic grasses also have elongated leaves, which allow them to receive more sunlight needed for photosynthesis.

Plants have an amazing property that helps them survive in desert or cold conditions. But, like any phenomenon, it has its drawbacks. Plants may be sensitive to
