Question

permeability is _________.

• the percentage of pore space in the rock
• the ability of a solid to allow fluids to pass through
• the amount of water vapor in the air relative to the maximum
• the process by which plants release water vapor to the atmosphere

Explanation:

Permeability is defined as the ability of a solid (such as a rock) to allow fluids to pass through its pore - spaces. The percentage of pore space in a rock is porosity. The amount of water vapor in the air relative to the maximum is relative humidity. The process by which plants release water vapor to the atmosphere is transpiration.

Answer:

the ability of a solid to allow fluids to pass through
