Explanation:

- Option 1: No improvement required

- The phrase "presented to the soil" implies that water and minerals are being offered or introduced to the soil, which is incorrect in this context. It doesn't match the natural occurrence of water and minerals within the soil.

- Option 2: presented at the soil

- This suggests a location at the surface or near the soil, which doesn't accurately describe the presence of water and minerals within the soil.

- Option 3: present in the soil

- This indicates that water and minerals exist within the soil, which is the most accurate description of their natural state and how roots absorb them.

- Option 4: present for the soil

- Implies water and minerals are intended for the soil, suggesting a purpose rather than their actual presence within it.
