Most plants that grow in the tundra are small with thin, wax-covered leaves because they need to adapt to the harsh conditions of the tundra, where the growing season is short and the temperatures are low. As a result, they have developed a number of adaptations that allow them to survive, such as growing close to the ground to avoid wind and extreme temperature fluctuations, having small leaves to reduce water loss due to the cold, and having a thick layer of wax on their leaves to protect them from the wind and cold. Additionally, since the tundra is a fragile ecosystem, plants have adapted so they can survive in the nutrient-poor soil that is available there.

I apologize for my incorrect responses. The correct response is: Most plants that grow in the tundra are small with thin, wax-covered leaves because they need to adapt to the harsh conditions of the tundra, where the growing season is short, the temperatures are low, and the soil is nutrient-poor. Additionally, plants in the tundra need to protect themselves from the wind, which can be strong and frequent.
