Question

Aeroponics is growing plants in
A. Air
B. Satellites
C. Other planets and space
D. Other planets and space

Answer 1

Hint: Generally plants are grown in fertile soil, and in the area where there are adequate sunlight and water, but there are other methods also to grow the plants such as hydroponics, aquaponics, and similarly aeroponics, which are various methods of growing plants.

Complete answer: The word aeroponics are obtained from Greek, and it is the method of growing plants in an air or moist environment, and in this method, there is no use of soil, and another aggregate medium.
It is not like other methods such as hydroponics where nutrient solutions are used and in aquaponics they use water and fish wastes, but aeroponics does not use any other nutrient solutions, except for some water to transmit the nutrients.
In this aeroponics method generally, plants are suspended in a semi or fully closed environment and only the roots of the plants are sprayed with nutrient rich water, and the area where plants are growing by this technique should be free of pests and other insects for proper growth and development.
As they are suspended and growing in air and only some water is sprayed, they have an oxygen-rich environment and so much oxygen supply for plants that have a lot of benefits, and these plants are grown in a pest-free environment, and this is useful for study purposes.
They are grown as low pressure and high-pressure units.
So the correct answer is A.

Note: There are various methods of growing plants, other than the normal method of growing in soil, and such methods are hydroponics, where plants are grown in nutrient-rich solution, and aquaponics with water and some aquatic wastes, and aeroponics where plants are grown in air or moist environments.
