Macbeth is concerned about the blood on his hands because he couldn't believe that he had really killed King Duncan. He says that no amount of water could wash away the bloo â¦ d, because washing the blood away couldn't bring the King back.
5. What characteristic of soil is most important in determining water holding capacity? I think the soils actual composition is most important when determining water holding capacity. If you look at clay compared to sand, you would know that the tiny clay particles are very tightly packed together which allows very little water to pass through.
The water binding capacities of five cereal and three tuberous starches, as well as fourteen modified wheat starches were determined using a Differential Scanning Calorimetry technique. Of the native starches, the tuberous ones had the highest moisture binding capacities. The influence of amylose/amylopectin ratio on water binding capacity was examined using waxy maize, normal maize and high amylose maize starches and increases in amylose level were found to result in reduced water binding.
