The difference between the wilting point and field capacity is approximately equal to
A)wilting point water.
B)gravitational water.
C)available water.
D)hygroscopic water.
E)distilled water.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The difference between the wilting point and field capacity represents the amount of available water in the soil, which is the water that is held in the soil between saturation and the wilting point. Therefore, the correct answer is C - available water. Choice A (wilting point water) and D (hygroscopic water) refer to specific water types, while choice B (gravitational water) and E (distilled water) are not related to the question.
