1. Why would
water move faster when the lowland is just soil?
2. Why
does water get a chance to return to the upland to collect more
load? (This should lead to a discussion about the water cycle.)
3. When
the plants threw the load pieces, some landed within the lowland.
What might these represent?
4. How
much load does water have if it moves through just soil?
5. Why would
water move more slowly when plants are present?
6. How much
load does water lose when it moves through an area with a few
plants? With more plants?
