Question

Give reasons for why plants can respire more efficiently in ploughed soon than in water logged soil

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer. Waterlogging occurs whenever the soil is so wet that there is insufficient oxygen in the pore space for plant roots to be able to adequately respire. ... There is no universal level of soil oxygen that can identify waterlogged conditions for all plants. ... Plant roots require oxygen for cellular respiration.

Answer 2

Answer:

Roots of the plant can respire more efficiently in ploughed soil than water logged soil as while ploughing, the soil gets aerated and a lot of air enters the soil.

While, in water logged soil, there will be no air and only water. Hence, the plant can breathe or respire more efficiently in ploughed soil
