*Water hayacinth aquatic plant
*mango tree terrestrial plant

Answer 2

Based on their habits and features, plants have been classified into a number of groups.

Eichhornia crassipes or water hyacinth is a plant that dwells naturally in an aquatic habitat.

It can be clearly assumed that the characteristics of water hyacinth are different from that of a mango tree which is a tropical tree.

While a mango tree draws up the nutrients required for its growth from the soil through the roots, water hyacinth derives nutrition from the gases that are dissolved in water.

They are also different in terms of structure and function.
