Question

Less light is available in marine environments than on land. Which adaptation is likely to help marine plants deal with these conditions?

Answer 1

One adaptation that is likely to help marine plants deal with the low light conditions in marine environments is having specialized pigments that can capture and utilize light more efficiently. For example, marine plants may have adaptations that allow them to absorb light at specific wavelengths that are more abundant in the marine environment. Additionally, some marine plants may be able to adjust their chlorophyll content or orientation of their leaves or organs to maximize light absorption in low light conditions.
