Question 9 Which statement is not correct? O Permanent wilting point is the point when capillary water is no longer available to the plant O Hygroscopic water moves primarily in liquid form O Field capacity is the amount of water/moisture held in the soil O Saturation point occurs when all soil pores are full of water 2 p Question 10 Pore space is important for: O Water movement and gas exchange Root growth O Microbe habitat All answers are correct 2 pt Question 11 What is capillary movement? O Water entering the soil profile O Water held in underground aquifers O Water movement through the soil profile caused by gravity O Water moving against the force of gravity and root uptake Question 12 What are nutrient pools? O mixture of gases O Bodies of water quantifiable plant nutrients in the soil Bodies of soil Question 13 Which of the following management practices are the most efficient methods to encourage good soil aeration? O Neither answers are correct O Both answers are correct O Adding OM and avoiding compaction O Adding pesticides 2p Question 15 This refers to the release of water, in various forms, from clouds. O Condensation O Evaporation O Transpiration O Precipitation Question 16 An area of land which is drained by a system of streams.
