What is the difference between percolation and absorption?
percolation rate (mL/min) = amount of water (mL)/percolation time (min) For example, suppose that for a certain sample, it took 20 minutes for 200 mL to percolate. So, rate of percolation =200 ml/20 min=10 ml/min. Weight of soil = 50g Initial volume of water in the measuring cylinder = U mL Final volume of water in the measuring cylinder = V mL Volume of water absorbed by the soil = (U Weight of water absorbed by the soil = (U (1 mL of water has weight equal to 1 g) percentage of water absorbed=(U-V)*100/50
Does plants absorb phosphate from the soil or from water?
The plants absorb minerals from the soil, since it is wet. When the soil is dry, there is no way for plants to absorb anything. That's what rain do, by making the soil wet, so that plants can absorb minerals through their roots.
When water is vapourisied energy is absorbed or released?
absorbed
How does the soil dissolve in water?
soil is not dissolve in water because plants grow in soil and water them
What nutrients are absorbed by osmosis?
water
Which substance absorbed more heat water or soil?
soil
How water is absorbed by a plant?
Water is absorbed by plants through the soil. When water is poured into the soil, the roots of the plant soak in the moisture from the soil, which allows the nutrients and vitamins to thrive.
What amount of water is absorbed in 75gm of soil with 60ml of water and also the percent of water absorbed?
52 liters
Some water will be absorbed through the soil surface is called?
Water that is absorbed through the soil surface is called seepage. This is water that soaks into the ground, usually in a low spot of the area.
What happens to water that is not absorbed by soil?
Rivers & oceans.
What is the process by which water is absorbed by the soil called?
percolation
How are water and dissolved minerals from the soil absorbed into plants?
From the roots
What is it called when water is absorbed through the soil?
It is called Condensation
What is the region where water from rain and snow is absorbed into the soil called?
Watershed
How does this explain how soils absorbs plant nutrients?
As you know that water is a universal solvent, so it dissolves almost every thing. So, as the water is absorbed by soil, automatically plant nutrients are also absorbed by the soil.
Do plants absorb phosphate from the soil or from water?
It is absorbed from the soil. There are no phosphates in water, though water can help phosphates and other nutrients enter the roots of plants.
What happens when soil block the flow of water though soil?
The soil is at "field capacity". In other words the capillary spaces are already full of water to the surface, hence no more water can be absorbed.
