Small roots help hydrophytes because water diffuses directly into stem and leaf tissues, negating the need for uptake by roots.
Las raíces pequeñas ayudan a los hidrófitos porque el agua se difunde directamente en el tejido del tallo y las hojas, por lo que no es necesario absorberla por las raíces.
