How does a cactus adapt to different environments?

[Edit]
Most cacti are very slow growing, and do not acclimate well to different environments from where they are native. Like most plants, however, they can adapt slightly to different humidity, temperature, soil, sunlight, and water levels.

Most cacti need a sunny location and well-draining soil to thrive.
