Answer 2

Answer:

Floating plants are not rooted at the water’s bottom, and the leaves and flowers float and move freely on the water’s surface. Some of them are rootless. Others have roots with hair-like structures that dangles from the underside of the leaves. They usually grow in areas where there is a little wave in the water. Some of the common examples of floating plants are water lily, water lettuce, and duckweed.

In the tropical areas with heated still waters, floating plants can completely cover the surface within several months. Hence, they are also called aquatic weeds. Duckweeds, for example, can double the surface coverage approximately every two days.
