A Correct answer
Explanation

Halophytes are plants adapted to grow in saline (salty) environments like salt marshes, mangroves, and coastal areas. They have specialized mechanisms to deal with high salt concentrations, such as salt glands or the ability to sequester salt in vacuoles. Mesophytes grow in moderate conditions, xerophytes in dry conditions, and aquaphytes in water.
