Vedclass · Answer

(D) In hydrophytes (aquatic plants),the respiratory exchange of gases occurs through the general body surface via diffusion. Since these plants are submerged or floating in water,they lack specialized structures like stomata or lenticels for gas exchange in the submerged parts,and the entire surface area of the plant is in direct contact with the surrounding water or air,allowing for efficient diffusion.
