Answer:

Deserts plants are the plants that are found in hot and dry deserts. They can be of two types: xerophytes and phreatophytes. The xerophytes plants are the plants that undergo changes in their structure in order to survive the desert. On the other hand, the phreatophytes are plants that have a deep root system in order to draw water from near the water table.

Aquatic plants are plants that have adapted to living in aquatic environments. They are also referred to as hydrophytes or macrophytes. A macrophyte is an aquatic plant that grows in or near water and is either emergent, submergent, or floating, and includes helophytes.
