Answer:

TERRESTRIAL PLANTS

 <font color = "red">

  • A terrestrial plant is a plant that grows on, in, or from land. Other types of plants are aquatic (living in water), epiphytic (living on trees) and lithophytic (living in or on rocks).

  • The distinction between aquatic and terrestrial plants is often blurred because many terrestrial plants are able to tolerate periodic submersion and many aquatic species have both submersed and emersed forms.
  • There are relatively few obligate submersed aquatic plants (species that cannot tolerate emersion for even relatively short periods), but some examples include members of Hydrocharitaceae and Cabombaceae, Ceratophyllum, and Aldrovanda, and most macroalgae (e.g. Chara and Nitella).
  • Most aquatic plants can, or prefer to, grow in the emersed form, and most only flower in that form. Many terrestrial plants can tolerate extended periods of inundation, and this is often part of the natural habitat of the plant where flooding is common. These plants (termed helophytes) tolerate extended periods of waterlogging around the roots and even complete submersion under flood waters.
  • Growth rates of helophytes decrease significantly during these periods of complete submersion and if water levels do not recede the plant will ultimately decline and perish.[

Answer:

A plant is considered terrestrial if it emerges from the ground or grows there.

Explanation:

1. Plants that grow on land are said to be terrestrial plants. Some of these plants developed certain structures or sections to survive in the terrestrial environment after evolving from watery environments.

2. The root system and the shoot system can be used to categorize the components of terrestrial plants. The root system is made up of roots that store food and draw nutrients from the soil. The shoot system, on the other hand, consists of stems and leaves that move materials up and down the plant.

3. Taproot, fibrous, and adventitious roots are the three types of roots. Taproot is the most common type of root found in dicotyledon plants. Fibrous roots are found in monocotyledon plants and grasses and are made up of very fine branches. Adventitious roots form on stems that grow above ground. Prop roots, which are found in corn, are among them.

4. The shoot system consists of stems, leaves, and flowers. Above the soil, shoots, also known as aerial plant structures, can be found. They are classified as having vegetative (stems and leaves) and reproductive parts (fruits and flowers).

5. Plant leaves and stems are considered vegetative parts, whereas flowers and fruits are reproductive parts.
