Class 12 Biology Practical 5: Soil Analysis - Texture, pH & Plant Correlation.

Welcome back to the AK Smart Study 🤓 Biology Practical Series! In this video, we delve into an important ecology-based experiment: Biology Practical 5: Study of Soil Samples - Texture and pH Analysis. This complete guide provides all the necessary steps, observations, and interpretations for your Class 12 practical notebook. We will cover: Aim and Theory: Understanding the significance of soil texture (sand, silt, clay) and soil pH in determining soil fertility and the types of plants that can grow in it. Materials & Procedure (Texture): Detailed steps for determining soil texture by the sedimentation method (shaking a soil sample in water). Materials & Procedure (pH): Step-by-step guidance on using a pH paper/meter to find the pH of different soil samples. Observation & Data Recording: How to record your observations accurately for both texture and pH from at least two different localities. Correlation with Flora: Discussing how to correlate the observed soil characteristics with the types of plants typically found in such conditions. This practical is vital for understanding environmental factors in biology! Follow along to prepare your notebook perfectly and ace your viva. Which soil factor (texture or pH) do you think has a bigger impact on plant growth, and why?
