Question

6. It is observed that melon fruits growing in the fields sometimes crack, exposing the contents
inside. What do you think can be the reason? (HINT This generally happens in fields where
drainage is not proper.)​

Answer 1

Answer:

It is observed that melon fruits growing in fields sometimes crack, exposing the contents inside. ... Melon fruits in the field may crack due to several reasons like over irrigation making the fruit take up more water than what it can hold, viral infection, birds or rodents and deficiency of some minerals like calcium.

Answer 2

Answer:

Melons growing in waterlogged fields with poor drainage tend to absorb more than they require. Melons can't hold this excess water, therefore, they crack.
