Transplanting is defined as which action?

• A. Moving a plant from one place to another
• B. Watering deeply
• C. Pruning branches
• D. Harvesting fruit

Answer: (A)

Transplanting means moving a plant from one place to another, typically with part of its root system so it can grow in a new location or container. This is different from watering deeply (giving water to the plant), pruning (cutting back branches), or harvesting fruit (removing mature produce). When you transplant, you lift the plant with its roots, place it into a prepared hole in the new site, backfill, and water well to help it establish in the new spot. Doing this at the right time helps minimize transplant shock and supports successful reestablishment.
