Why does humus tend to increase with the clay content of soil?

Biology
1 answer:
Mashutka [201]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

As the clay content increases, there is more surface area in the soil for organic matter to adsorb to, which decreases the rate of decomposition.

A plant cell placed in a solution with a lower (more negative) water potential will _____.
bagirrra123 [75]
The answer to this question would be: absorbing water.

A lower water potential solution will induce osmosis to plant cells. In this case, the water will move to the plant cells since solution water potential nearby cells are lower. The plant will continue to accept water until the cells bloated, causing the pressure inside cells increases until the water pressure will gradually stop the osmosis. The plant cell rarely burst as it has cellulose wall, unlike animal cells.
