← HistoryWhich mechanism governed water flow between Mughal garden terraces?
A)Siphon effect maintained water pressure
B)Hydraulic head influenced water delivery✓
C)Capillary action irrigated plant roots
D)Bernoulli's principle accelerated flow
💡 Explanation
Hydraulic head, based on gravity and height difference, determined water potential because it drove the cascading flow through channels between terraces. Therefore, terraces varied, rather than constant flow (siphon) or microscopic effects (capillary action).
