PLANT LIFE IN SOFT BOTTOM COMMUNITIES 1. INTRODUCTION This paper deals with plants that are found in soft bottom communities that are either found in freshwater or marine environment. These plants are submerged therefore having different adaptation for this environment. These different adaptations were tackled in this paper as well as the physico-chemical parameters present in their environment. These plants have changes in their morphology to be able to cope with the environment. For example

Chapter 35 Plant Structure‚ Growth‚ and Development Lecture Outline Overview: Plastic Plants? • The fanwort‚ an aquatic weed‚ demonstrates the great developmental plasticity that is characteristic of plants. o The fanwort has feathery underwater leaves and large‚ flat‚ floating surface leaves. o Both leaf types have genetically identical cells‚ but the dissimilar environments in which they develop cause different genes involved in leaf formation to be turned on or off.

Evolution by natural selection is slow but can be observed in certain situations. How to spot evolution in real time: Artificial selection – manipulation by humans such as breeding dogs or growing corn. Repro-rate – rate of reproduction. Stochastic Event: unexpected disaster like a volcano eruption or tornado. (Research geological time) LIVING THINGS: Biology – Study of living things. Living things – all the organisms descended from a single-celled ancestor. * Characteristics:
