Question

Which two methods of separation are generally used by farmers for separating
different substances in their fields? Differentiate between them and give examples
mixtures separated by each of these methods.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Husk is separated from heavier seeds of grain by winnowing. Difference in the size of particles in a mixture is utilised to separate them by the process of sieving and filtration. In a mixture of sand and water, the heavier sand particles settle down at the bottom and the water can be separated by decantation.
