Question

lotus with its leaves floating on the surface of water. In what way does this feature help it to grow well

Answer 1

Explanation:

The contact area between water and dirt is reduced, making the leaf highly water repellent, or hydrophobic. The wax is also capable of self-regeneration. When water drops fall on this surface, they roll down, carrying dirt particles with them. Even glue cannot stick to the surface of the lotus leaf.
