2.FIXED AQUATIC PLANTS
These plants grow in small water bodies like
ponds and lakes.
The roots of such plants are fixed to the
bottom of the pond.
They have light hollow stem that supports the
leaves and flowers.
The leaves are broad and flat to get enough Lotus
air and sunlight.
Stomata are present on the upper surface of
the leaf.
Waxy coating on leaf surface helps them to
repel water and prevents from rotting.
