Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conifers have adapted to survive in harsh environmental conditions, such as at high elevations in the far north, where angiosperms may not be as successful. Conifers have also adapted to survive in drier conditions, such as in mid-continent plains and northwestern scrub forests. However, angiosperms have generally outcompeted conifers in temperate northeastern coastal regions and southern woodlands.
