Answer:

This buoyancy is due to air spaces present in between parenchyma tissue. Such a sort of parenchyma tissue having thin-walled cells with large intercellular air spaces, especially found in hydrophytes, is called aerenchyma. It is with the help of aerenchyma that the lotus leaves float on water

Answer:

it is because of parenchyma tissues which are filled with air . this adaptation is called aerenchyma.

Explanation:

The stems of lotus contain air sacs (aerenchyma) throughout their length that enables the leaves and flowers to float above water. More over the leaves are flattened and leathery which allows them to float without becoming waterlogged.
