 Q. 2 B) Write the summary of the above extract with a suitable title. You may use the following points:

(the soil….plants…..decomposition….the salt)

Most of the water in the soil is rain water and theoretically it should be as pure as distilled water. Fortunately, however, this is usually not the case, for plants need not only water to live, but also minerals – vital salts which are liberated during the decomposition of rock and soil. This decomposition is a continuous process and proceeds fastest at high temperature. When there is plenty of rain, most of the salts produced by decomposition are washed away into streams and rivers, and a proper mineral balance is maintained.

            The salt concentration in the ocean is also high and very few land plants grow in sea water. Most plants which grow on beaches, such as the coconut palm, actually live on fresh water, paradoxical though this may seem. The seashore may be their habitat because the ocean currents will distribute their seeds, the coconuts, but they can no more live on salt water than any other plant. In fact, their roots do not reach sea water, but only go down to the fresh water which, being lighter than the salt, floats on top of it. Thus, when it rains on the sandy tropical beaches, the rain water raises the water table in the sand, forcing the salt water downward and outward. 

Ans: Q. 2 B) Summary Writing:- 

THE GROWTH OF PLANTS

             Plants need water as well minerals for growth. Decomposition of rock and soil is a continuous process which produces salts – minerals. During rain salt produced by this process is washed away into streams and rivers, which maintains mineral balance. As salt concentration in the ocean is high, very few land plants grow in sea water. Most plants like coconuts growing on beaches live on fresh water. Their roots do not reach sea water but only go down to the fresh water which is lighter than salt and so floats on top of it.
