Early plants far from water were primarily limited by their need for hydration to sustain cellular functions and photosynthesis. The lack of specialized structures, such as deep roots or water retention mechanisms, made it difficult for them to access moisture from the soil. Additionally, desiccation (drying out) posed a significant threat, as they lacked protective adaptations like waxy cuticles or efficient water-conservation strategies. Consequently, their survival and proliferation were largely restricted to moisture-rich environments.
An ocean current?
Water in a wave moves in a circular motion, with the water particles moving in an orbital path and not moving very far forward as the wave passes through. This movement is a transfer of energy rather than a transfer of water mass.
No, some plants float on the top of water. Like Lilypads.Some live exclusively in water and far under the surface of many oceans, such as seaweed.
Succulent plants and cacti need to store as much water whenever the rain should happen to fall. As the rain may be far between in desert areas, storing water is vital to help the plants to survive.
There is limited water available in the deserts so plants tend to space themselves to avoid competition from other plants.
Early plants did not move far from water because they needed water for reproduction through the use of sperm cells that swim in water to reach eggs. Additionally, water helped support their structure, preventing desiccation. Without a vascular system to transport water internally, plants had to rely on water availability in their immediate surroundings.
all living things, including plants, are made of cells.
Far too cold, too much gravity, really high winds of poisonous gasses. Also no soil for plants and no water.
