Vedclass · Answer

(B) $Vallisneria$ is a submerged,dioecious,freshwater plant where pollination occurs through water (epihydrophily). In $Vallisneria$,the female flower reaches the surface of the water by a long stalk,and the male flowers or pollen grains are released onto the surface,which are then carried by water currents to the female flower. In contrast,$Nelumbium$,$Eichornia$,and $Nymphaea$ are aquatic plants,but they are pollinated by insects or wind,not by water.
