Answer:

Examples of Hydrophytes: Lotus, water lily, hydrilla, valisineria, trapa, crow foot etc.

Explanation:

  • Hydrophytes are plants that can survive and live only in an aquatic environment like fully in water or wetlands.
  • They either live submerged completely in water like valisineria and hydrilla or stay half afloat and half-submerged like the lotus and water lilies.
  • Based on their existence they are classified as floating, submerged deep water, marginal and oxygenated plants.
  • Hydrophytes have various adaptations like floating flat leaves, feathery roots, long petioles, reduced vascular system, large intercellular air sacks or spaces, etc.
