Answer 2

Answer:

...

Explanation:

Water hyacinth floats on the surface of the water because the parenchyma tissue present in water hyacinth has specialized tissue modification which is called Aerenchyma. This tissue has large air cavities due to which it provides the buoyancy to the plant and helps to float in the water.

Water hyacinths are the only large aquatic herb that can float on the water unattached to the bottom. They float on bloated air-filled hollow leaf stalks. The oxygen bubbles float to the surface of the water and get released into the air which provides buoyancy.
