Question

Information in adaptation in parts of plants like water hyacinth

Answer 1

The primary adaptation of the water hyacinth, Eichhoria crassipes , is its hollow bulbous stem below each leaf. These allow the plants to float, keeping the leaves and flowers above the water so they don't rot. The water hyacinth mainly reproduces through stolons. This adaptation allows for a single plant to produce approximately 3,000 new plants in as little as 50 days or cover 600 square meters in as little as a year. Also, the water hyacinth seeds are adapted to be dispersed by birds and can remain viable for up to 20 years.The water hyacinth has other adaptations that allow it to grow and spread rapidly in freshwater. Its swollen leaf stalks are hollow and filled with air. This allows it to be the only large aquatic herb that floats unattached from the bottom of its water source. The roots remain underwater in a thick mat, allowing the plant to obtain enough sunlight for photosynthetic processes. They have also adapted to withstand extreme temperatures, high pH levels and even toxic water.
