Why is water important for plant growth?

• Stops the plant from feeling thirsty

• Water dissolves the minerals in the soil which can be taken up by the roots

• Moisture in the air is absorbed by photosynthesis

• Without water the soil would become waterlogged

Some of the effects of low mineral ions being absorbed are

• Yellow leaves

• Increase in the number of leaves

• Taller plants

• Stunted root growth

Three types of sampling techniques are

• Transects, Quadrats and Point Frames

• Quadrats, Lines and Needle frames

• Grids, Transects and Point Frames
