One adaptation of a manatee is that they have sharp senses. They also can swim fast and feed on many plants in the water.
They have long roots to get at the nutrients below and around the mangrove. The bark is waxy to stop the water from getting into the bark.
they eat and grow
The habitat of mangrove trees are mangrove swamps. Mangrove trees have breathing roots that come out of the swamp so that the roots can take in air. :)
Mangrove trees have aerial roots (roots above the soil) as they grow very close together and therefore don't find enough oxygen (O2) underground.
The mangrove tree must be near the ocean because that its roots can survive in salt water.
Mangrove trees have become specialized to survive in the extreme conditions of estuaries. Two key adaptations they have are the ability to survive in waterlogged and anoxic (no oxygen) soil, and the ability to tolerate brackish waters.

The mangrove trees do not get uprooted by storms and tides because of their extensive roots
They allow the exchange of gas as the water below them is too muddy with almost no air. This would also prevent the roots from rotting. The mangrove roots are also known as "breathing roots", which implies its function, to breath.
Mangrove trees [Rhizophora spp] tend to live in areas that are inundated daily by the ocean. They're able to survive in such environments by lower roots being submerged and serving as anchors and elevated roots being above water and taking in oxygen. They also are able to survive due to an internal pumping mechanism that removes excess salts from cells. Their most well known representative is the red mangrove [Rhizophora mangle]Their most common pest is a relative [Poecilips fallax] of the carver beetle. This beetle devastates the mangrove with large, long tunnels by which adults and larvae feed on the tree's seeds.
The mudskipper is a fish which can walk, breathe air and climb tree roots in mangrove areas.
There are three species of mangrove trees: red mangroves, white mangroves and black mangroves. They all live in salty or brackish waters along the coastlines. Red mangrove are usually in the lower/deeper waters. They are the ones with the large prop-roots. Reds and Blacks live in higher edges of the wetland/shorelines.

flvs... haha the answer is prop roots
