Explain What Is Aquatic Plants?

The plant or vegetation that grows inside water is called as an aquatic plant. They are found in seawater as well as freshwater.

Aquatic Plants are an essential part of the aquatic ecosystem. They act as a source of food and provide oxygen to the animal species living underwater. The aquatic animals make use of dissolved Carbon Dioxide and water for photosynthesis, because there is no sufficient sunlight at the bottom of the sea.

The aquatic plants are divided into four groups such as Algae, Floating Plants, Submerged Plants, and Emergent Plants.
