Step-by-step explanation:

The cuticle is a layer of tissue on the outside of most leaves and stems, and its primary function is to help the plant conserve moisture. Since hydrophytes are full of water and moisture, it does not need a cuticle.Most aquatic plants don’t need to seal in moisture, so they don’t have cuticles
