Amazing dissection and microscope shots.

I had an approximate knowledge of cacti and the wax layers. The thorns acting as water condensers is a new bit of information to me but it makes perfect sense. Under the microscope, the thorns are hairy which is to increases the surface area of the thorn, just like a heat sink. In this case, creating small areas for water vapor to stick and collect, then drop down.
