Vedclass · Accepted Answer

Water hyacinth

Vedclass · Answer

(D) In many aquatic plants,such as Water hyacinth and Water lily,the flowers emerge above the level of water and are pollinated by insects or wind in a similar fashion as most of the land plants. $Vallisneria$ and $Hydrilla$ are freshwater plants that undergo hydrophily (pollination by water). $Zostera$ is a marine seagrass that also undergoes hydrophily. Therefore,Water hyacinth is the correct answer as it grows in water but is pollinated by insects or air.

It grows in a watery environment,but pollination occurs through insects or air.
