👉 Achelocis is a type of plant that grows in shallow water and can be found in freshwater habitats such as rivers, streams, and lakes. It is characterized by its elongated stem-like structure, which has many branching points called achelates. This shape allows it to absorb nutrients from the soil and grow into a large, dense canopy. Achelocis play an important role in water cycle processes, including nutrient cycling and carbon sequestration.
