There are more to aquatic plants than just floating on the surface of water. Aquatic plants are plants that can adapt and live in a freshwater environment. They are sometimes called hydrophytes. These include plants that live in fresh wetlands‚ swamps‚ ponds‚ lakes‚ and marshes. This type of plant actually serves two important functions. First‚ they help oxygenate water (2006) and they provide nutrients and food for some fishes (Tappin‚ 2003). There are many types of aquatic plants including rooted

8. In both Hipparchian and Ptolemaic systems‚ the planets are assumed to move in a small circle called an epicycle‚ which in turn moves along a larger circle called a deferent. Both circles rotate clockwise and are roughly parallel to the plane of the Sun’s orbit (ecliptic). Despite the fact that the system is considered geocentric‚ the planets’ motion was not centered on the Earth but on what is called the eccentric. The orbits of planets in this system are epitrochoids. The epicycle rotated and

Aquatic plants: Fixed plants Fixed plants are held in place by their roots which grow in the water-bed. The Water Lily and Lotus are such plants. Their stems are long‚ hollow and light. These stems reach the surface of the water. The leaves and flowers‚ which grow from the top end of the stems‚ float upon the water. The leaves are broad with stomata on the top surface so that the water does not block them. Lotus The roots of lotus are planted in the soil of the pond or river bottom‚ while
