What can submerged plants do that floating plants cannot?
Submerged plants can extract nutrients directly from the water column through their roots and not rely solely on their leaves for nutrient uptake, unlike floating plants. Submerged plants also provide shelter and breeding grounds for aquatic organisms in the water column. They can also oxygenate the water more effectively due to their direct contact with the water, contributing to a healthier aquatic ecosystem.
What are the examples of partially submerged plants?
Water Lily and Lotus are some I know
Why do submerged plants have narrow thin leaves?
