Answer:

Hydrophytes, Mesophytes, and Xerophytes are plants that show adaptations to survive in their environments. The key difference between Hydrophytes, Mesophytes, and Xerophytes is that Hydrophytes are adapted to aquatic environments . Hydrophytes lack a cuticle. Hydrophytes plant structure is simple. Hydrophytes have flat and broad leaves that can float. Hydrophytes have no roots or less dense roots. Hydrophytes have a higher number of stomata that are open always. For example Water lily, lotus,Lemna (Duckweed), Pistia (Water Cabbage), Eichhornia (Water hyacinth) and Ceratophyllum etc .

Xerophytes are adapted to dry habitats . Xerophytes have a thick cuticle. Xerophytes have a well-developed plant structure. Xerophytes have small and rolled leaves. Xerophytes have a well-developed large root system. Xerophytes have less number of stomata that are sunken in pits. For example Catci, spines, Joshua Tree , Succulent plant , Some bromeliads, The Cactaceae family of plants, Chaparral plants, Barrel cacti etc .

Mesophytes are adapted to average water and average temperature environments . Mesophytes have a waxy cuticle. Mesophytes have a well-developed plant structure. Mesophytes have large leaves. Mesophytes have a well-developed root system. Mesophytes have sufficient amount of stomata the in the lower surface of the leaves. An example of a mesophytic habitat would be a rural temperate meadow, which might contain goldenrod, clover, oxeye daisy, and Rosa multiflora.

Mesophytes are terrestrial plants which are adapted to neither a particularly dry nor particularly wet environment. An example of a mesophytic habitat would be a rural temperate meadow, which might contain goldenrod, clover, oxeye daisy, and Rosa multiflora.

A xerophyte is a species of plant that has adapted to survive in an environment with little liquid water, such as a desert or an ice- or snow-covered region in the Alps or the Arctic. For example, a cactus has white hairs which help to prevent water loss. Another example is manzanita plants, which have a thick waxy coating and keep their leaves vertical to the sun.

Hydrophytes are aquatic plants that are especially suited for living in aquatic environments. In order to survive, a hydrophyte, also known as an aquatic macrophyte, must either be completely submerged in water, or in some cases be allowed to float on the surface of the water. Example: Lotus, Sea weeds, Pistia, Water lily etc.
