Vegetables can lose nutrients when soaked in water because many vitamins and minerals are water-soluble, meaning they dissolve in water. Extended soaking can leach these nutrients out of the vegetables, particularly B vitamins and vitamin C. Additionally, the longer vegetables are submerged, the greater the nutrient loss, especially if the water is warm or hot. To minimize nutrient loss, it's often better to wash vegetables quickly and avoid prolonged soaking.

Why would water stop soaking into the ground in the saturated zone?
Water stops soaking into the ground in the saturated zone because the soil pores are already filled to capacity with water. When saturation occurs, the soil becomes completely saturated, preventing any additional water from infiltrating. This can lead to water pooling on the surface or running off instead of soaking into the ground.
