Module 1 Unit 3 1 / 3 In selecting a location for vertical farming, why is water quality particularly important? Poor water quality can lead to diseases, low yields, and other growth issues in plants. High-quality water reduces the need for artificial lighting in the growth process. Good water quality enables plants to produce their own nutrients for hydroponic growth. 2 / 3 Why is access to sunlight significant in hydroponic farming systems? It enhances the plants' root growth directly by increasing water absorption. It provides the energy needed for photosynthesis, which supports plant growth and nutrient uptake. It reduces the need for temperature control by providing natural warmth. 3 / 3 Which of the following is a key reason why temperature control is essential in hydroponic farming? To enhance soil nutrient retention for better crop yield. To prevent high humidity levels that could lead to mold, nutrient deficiencies, and plant diseases. To encourage rapid growth by increasing transpiration rates in extremely low humidity conditions. Your score isThe average score is 0% 0% Restart quiz
