The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "Soil pores with capillary water are:", we will analyze the options provided and determine which type of soil pore is associated with capillary water. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Soil Pores**: - Soil consists of various types of pores that can hold water. These pores can be classified based on their size. 2. **Types of Soil Pores**: - **Superpores**: These are large pores that allow for rapid drainage of water. They do not retain water effectively. - **Micropores**: These are very small pores that can hold water due to capillary action. They retain water and are crucial for plant growth. - **Mesopores**: These are intermediate-sized pores that can hold some water but not as effectively as micropores. - **Micropores** (mentioned again): This seems to be a repetition in the options. 3. **Capillary Water**: - Capillary water refers to the water that is held in the soil pores against the force of gravity due to surface tension. This water is available to plants for uptake. 4. **Identifying the Correct Option**: - Since capillary water is primarily held in micropores due to their small size and high surface area, the correct answer to the question is **Micropores**. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the soil pores with capillary water are best described as **Micropores**. ### Final Answer: The soil pores with capillary water are **Micropores**. ---
