What are the examples of fully submerged plants?

Examples of fully submerged plants include eelgrass (Zostera marina), waterweed (Elodea canadensis), and hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata). These plants are adapted to grow entirely underwater and play important roles in aquatic ecosystems.


How Sunlight is necessary for photosynthesis and then how submerged aquatic plants make their own food?

Sunlight is essential for photosynthesis as it provides the energy needed for plants to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. In submerged aquatic plants, chlorophyll absorbs sunlight that penetrates the water surface, enabling them to perform photosynthesis. These plants utilize dissolved carbon dioxide and nutrients from the water, allowing them to produce their own food despite being submerged. Thus, sunlight remains a critical factor for their survival and growth.


Is hydrilla a fully submerged?

Yes, it is a fully-submerged plant


How do fully submerged water plants get water from?

Fully submerged water plants, or aquatic plants, absorb water primarily through their leaves and stems rather than their roots. The water is taken up along with essential nutrients dissolved in it, allowing the plants to thrive in their aquatic environment. Additionally, some plants utilize specialized structures, such as aerenchyma, to facilitate gas exchange and nutrient transport within their tissues. This adaptation enables them to efficiently manage their needs while being fully submerged.


Why do plants have waxy coating on their leaves?

so that the leaves wouldnt be all soaked up with the water, and sink as they have short stems (their pretty small as well compared to partially submerged plants) they will eventually die due to insufficient amount of food (taller plants block the sunlight) and also will have too much water. they will die also due to overcrowding, this also occurs on land plants because the parent plant will get more sunlight and the young plants have to compete with them. in the water, too much floating or partially submerged plants will start to block eachother from the sunlight, depending on which grows more. they also completely block sunlight from the submerged plants down there.

What tropic level is the submerged plants?

Submerged plants typically occupy the first trophic level in an aquatic ecosystem. As primary producers, they convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis, forming the base of the food chain. These plants provide essential nutrients and habitat for various herbivores, which occupy the second trophic level.
