Vedclass · Answer

(B) Water hyacinth $(Eichhornia\,crassipes)$ is an invasive alien species,not an indigenous plant of India. It was introduced in India because of its beautiful flowers and shape of leaves. Since it can propagate vegetatively at a phenomenal rate and spread all over the water body in a short period,it is very difficult to get rid of them. It is known as the 'Terror of Bengal' because it drains oxygen from the water,which leads to the death of fishes and other aquatic organisms. Therefore,option $B$ is the incorrect statement.
