{{Quote| | {{Quote|Photosynthetic organisms that have adapted to extreme conditions by reducing their surface area to volume ratio, thereby protecting more sensitive tissues from exposure. The outer layer is formed from specialised light.transmitting cells. These are filled with an insulating hydrophobic layer, which helps to maintain core temperature and liquid retention. Deep, extensive root structures hold the organisms in place, and facilitate the extraction of trace minerals. Some cactoida species feature explosive seed distribution as a method of reproduction. |In-Game Description}} | ||
'''Cactoida''' are a species of alien organism found on [[planets]] and [[moons]] with thin atmospheres across the galaxy.
