Flowers, leaves, roots, and stems are ways in which pond weed is adapted to live in a pond. The flowers grow at the top to facilitate seed dispersal, the leaves have a surface which handles filtered light for photosynthesis, the roots manage to survive 24-7 moisture -- which many plants dislike -- , and the stems perfect flexibility to move with currents. The stems in fact serve to epitomize the adaptation since on land their flexible, go-with-the-flow structure would lead them to unproductively splatter all over the ground.
