Why is soil porosity influence to plant growth and development?
A sandy soil is quick draining, but may be poor in nutrients. A clay soil is poor draining, and may be waterlogged for long periods. Though clay soils may be richer than sandy soils in nutrients, having waterlogged roots may rot off a plant's roots. A well draining, nutrient rich, loamy soil will hold water, yet drain enough to avoid root rot, so allowing the plants to thrive.
Why is waterlogged soil not good for most plants?
this is not good because it will make the soil too watery that the plant will die

What type of soil does mustard grow?
Temperate or cool temperate climates, although some varieties have been bred to grow in near-tropical climates. Mustard is usually too disease-prone to grow well in subtropical areas, though.

Explain two aspects of a peat gley soil that make it difficult for a farmer to cultivate?
Gley soils have very poor drainage and nutrients don't move well through the soils. Also gley soils can easily become waterlogged and there can be a lack of oxygen through the soil.

Can money trees be planted outside in dirt?
Yes, money trees can be planted outside in dirt. The tropical wetland tree native to Central and South America (Pachira aquatica) likes moist soils and withstands periodic flooding and waterlogged locations along water bodies. It survives upland soils if it is not exposed to direct sunlight in summer and receives generous supplementary irrigation that prevents the roots and soils from ever drying out the top 5 inches (12.7 centimeters) of soil.
What is a synonym to the word waterlogged?

Do plastic float on water longer than wood?

Why do roots die in waterlogged soil?
Plants cells require oxygen to live, but unlike animals, plants do not have a circulatory system designed to distribute oxygen to all its cells. When a plant takes in oxygen from the atmosphere, that oxygen is used locally within the plant. That is, if a leaf takes in oxygen through its stomates, that oxygen will be used by the leaf. Green stems also have stomates for gas exchange. Woody stems have openings called lenticels. Roots breathe too, taking in oxygen and releasing CO2. In young roots and root tips, gases exchange right through cell membranes. In older roots with bark, gases are allowed into the plant through lenticels, and the gases are exchanged directly through cell membranes. In waterlogged soils, the pore space between soil particles is completely filled with water. No oxygen is present, so roots in waterlogged soils will die.
