How those leaves float?
Can anybody help me find books or papers to read? For free-floating
and floated-leaf plants, I know air is trapped and density is lower than water. People told me:" upper leaf surface is hydrophobic and unwettable (so it floats); and lower surface is hydrophilic". Is that true? I want to find books or papers to verifiy this. Thanks a lot. Z |
