The most significant difference would be that they are able to derive oxygen and sometimes nutrients from water. Another common difference, especially with plants, is a lower investment in structure (many terrestrial plants have stems which hold them up; underwater plants need less structure to support themselves).

Many other differences arise. For example, anatomical structures more significant in each environment will be different (e.g. legs) and the coloration and visual patterns that are attractive or which form camouflage differ.
