Solution

The correct option is B

Basic soil


Plants do not grow well when the soil is either too basic or too acidic. Plants grown in acidic soil can experience a variety of symptoms including aluminium (Al), hydrogen (H), and/or manganese (Mn) toxicity, as well as nutrient deficiencies of calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg). Aluminium toxicity is the most widespread problem in acid soils.
