Pondweeds, such as those from the genus Potamogeton, have several adaptations that allow them to thrive in aquatic environments. They possess flexible stems and leaves that can bend with water currents, reducing the risk of damage. Their submerged leaves are often thin and ribbon-like to maximize surface area for photosynthesis while minimizing resistance. Additionally, pondweeds have specialized structures called aerenchyma, which facilitate gas exchange and buoyancy, helping them maintain their position in the water column.
