Question

seagrass is more efficient at capturing carbon dioxide than tropical rainforests are. like all plants, it needs water to grow. how do aquatic plants like seagrass intake water? (1 point) from groundwater below by absorbing it from photosynthesis by using cohesion forces

Explanation:

Aquatic plants like seagrass are surrounded by water. They do not have a complex root system to draw water from groundwater (as terrestrial plants might in some cases). Photosynthesis produces oxygen and glucose (from carbon dioxide and water), it does not intake water. Cohesion forces are more relevant in the transport of water within plants (like in xylem of taller plants) but not the initial intake. Absorbing water directly from their aquatic environment (since they are submerged or in water - rich surroundings) is the main way for aquatic plants like seagrass to intake water.

Answer:

B. by absorbing it
