Answers
1. The aquatic plant is lotus.
2. The most common adaptation is the presence of lightweight internal packing cells, aerenchyma, but floating leaves and finely dissected leaves are also common.
The adaption seen in hydrophytes are:
a) leaves are free floating,large, smooth, shining and coated with wax to avoid rotting as they are in constant touch with water
b) thin ribbon like frayed leaves are adapted by submerged plants which allow safe passage through currents
c) roots system is poorly developed and roots are meaningless as the entire surface of the plants absorb war and minerals
d) the plants float as they have tender stems with numerous air spaces
