Question

Which of the following is most suitable for the growth of plants?

• A. Acidic soil
• B. Basic soil
• C. Neutral soil
• D. Can't say

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Neutral soil

Plants do not grow well when the soil is either too basic or too acidic. So the neutral soil is the most suitable for plants.Plants grown in acid soils 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.
