Which soil condition usually exists when flooding occurs during a rainstorm?
When flooding occurs during a rainstorm, the soil condition is typically saturated with water. This saturation prevents the soil from absorbing additional water, leading to surface runoff and flooding.
How can improve the condition of soil?
One can improve the condition of soil by 1. Using fertilisers, pesticides and insecticides 2. Planting more trees 3. If there is deforestation, one should plant teen more trees
Which condition most likely exists when precipitation is greater than evapotranspiration and soil water storage is at its maximum?
The condition most likely to exist in this scenario is that the soil is saturated or at field capacity. This means that the soil is holding as much water as it can and any additional precipitation will result in runoff.
What is quick condition in soil mechanics?
Quick Condition is a condition which arises due to presence of water/moisture in a soil mass. When the pore water pressure is so much that it equals the total stress in the soil mass then the effective stress becomes zero as a result of this and there is so force which can hold the particles together and prevent sliding away of the soil particles. In such a case the soil mass behaves almost as a liquid and there is no strength in it. For eg, the slopes in soil mass become unstable in rainy seasons and slope failures occur on account of this. As soon as the water content is reduced the soil's effective stress is increased thereby resulting in stability.
What is partially saturated soil?
Partially saturated soil is soil in which some of the pore spaces are filled with water while others contain air. This condition occurs when the soil is not fully saturated with water, leaving some space for air to be present.
What is guttation?
Guttation is the process by which plants release excess water in the form of droplets through specialized structures called hydathodes. This usually happens at night when transpiration is low and root pressure is high. Guttation droplets can sometimes be mistaken for dew.
How do you think this plant obtains nutrients from the soil?
The roots and their hairs reach into the soil to absorb nutrients. Capillary action of water induces the absorption.
What soil condition do earwigs like?
The soil in soil
What is the differences between transpiration and guttation?
Water leaves as vapor in day time in transpiration. Salty water leaves as liquid at night in guttation
When plants produce water What is this process called?
Guttation
Why do trees bubble when it rains and what is the reason behind this phenomenon?
Trees bubble when it rains because they release excess water through a process called guttation. Guttation occurs when the soil is saturated with water and the tree's roots absorb more water than the leaves can transpire. This excess water is pushed out of the tree through special structures called hydathodes, creating the bubbles that you see.
How can you determine whether adrop of water on tip of leaf is dew or water that has been forced by guttation?
Guttation is caused by root pressure causing more water to enter the leaves than is transpired. Where dew is condensed moisture produced during transpiration. Determining by observation: 1) Many plants do not under go Guttation (Due to low root pressure), so guttation is mostly isolated to grass, and small herbaceous eudicots. 2) Transpiration is low at night, which would support Guttation of plants over dew during these times. During the day even the plants that can undergo guttation can't keep up with transpiration, so during these times droplets are probably dew. Experiment wise: 3) If you were setting up an experiment you could try to label the ground water/ions, if the labeled is showing up on the leaf surface you have guttation.
What tree releases heavy water?
The tree you may be referring to is the eucalyptus tree, which releases small droplets of water known as "guttation" through its leaves. This process helps the tree eliminate excess water and nutrients absorbed from the soil.
What is the main cause of guttation in plants?
the main cause of guttation in plants is root pressure.during night wen root pressure is high sometimes den due to this pressure watery drops ooze out with the assistance of special structures which help in guttation called the hydathodes
Why do drops of water appear on plants on cold mornings even when it has not been raining?
Because overnight when the air gets colder, it can not hold as much moisture, so liquid water condensates on any surface it can, including plants. On plants this is known as guttation water and is normally found at the tips or lowest points on the leaves
What is the effects of soil erosion to condition of soil?
less fertile, less quality,less productive
What is it called when a plant bursts of excess water pressure?
It's called guttation. Guttation occurs when the plant absorbs more water than it can transpire, leading to the release of excess water through specialized structures called hydathodes.
