← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome ensures healthy wetland plant growth when perpetually waterlogged?
A)Increased aerenchyma develops in plant roots✓
B)Iron oxidation increases along root surfaces
C)Decreased methane production via methanogens
D)Enhanced ammonium diffusion via water column
💡 Explanation
Increased aerenchyma develops in plant roots due to an adaptive stress response called programmed cell death promoting internal aeration, stimulating nitrogen fixation in the rhizosphere. Therefore, energy efficient root structure results, rather than iron toxicity, and optimizes root function different than decreasing methane production.
