Answer: Porosity

Explanation: Porosity is the ratio of volume of pores to the total volume of soil. This ratio varies between 0 and 1, or  between 0% and 100% as a percentage.

Porosity=\frac{\text {volume of pores}}{\text {Total volume}}\times 100\%

Porosity is also called as void fraction and  is a measure of the empty spaces present in a material. Thus a porous soil will have more amount of  air and less porous soil will have less amount of  air.

A porous soil is made from coarse particles that leave large gaps known as pores.

valentina_108 [34]

hi <3

changes in the enzyme's shape would decrease its ability to function as this would change the active site of the enzyme, meaning it is harder for it to carry out its job.

this is why we try to keep enzymes in their optimum environmental conditions so they can function their best

hope this helps :)
