Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Aquatic plant that live over water , they have broad leaves in order to maximize the lost of water through respiration because they live in a environment where water excess . ... therefore they reduce sap loss due to osmosis their leaves adopted a waxy covering.

The top of each leaf is covered in a waxy substance called a cuticle that keeps water from pooling and blocking light. It also keeps the pores plants use for gas exchange, called stomata, open. If you flipped the leaves of a water lily over, you would see small thorns on the underside.
