The form of soil water that is **available** to plants for absorption is:

  1. Gravitational water
  2. Hygroscopic water
  3. Capillary water
  4. Combined water
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. Capillary water

Capillary water (held between soil particles by capillarity) is the form plants can absorb. Gravitational (percolates away), hygroscopic (tightly adsorbed on particles) and combined water (in mineral hydrates) are not available.
