Explanation:

Submerged plants are located under water bodies.

They have ribbon like leaves so that they stay on the ground without being flown away from tides.

Floating plants are located on top of the water bodies.

They float freely on the water surface but they have their root deeply anchored into the seabed.

They too take nutrients from the seabed.
