Question

5 adaptations of floating plant

Answer 1

Water lilies have a number of adaptations that help them survive in water, including big leaves that float on the water's surface to attract ample sunlight for photosynthesis. The top side of the leaf is covered with a cuticle to keep it as dry as possible, and the underside has thorns to protect against predators.

Some plants can grow on dry land OR in standing water, being adapted to both environments. ... Lotus plants have thick cuticle which provides its floating effect[buoyancy]. And water don't penetrate in leaf bec of ths cuticle. Roots are even well adapted to meant be in water.

Aquatic plants are plants that have adapted to living in aquatic environments (saltwater or freshwater). They are also referred to as hydrophytes or macrophytes. These plants require special adaptations for living submerged in water, or at the water's surface.
