Level 3Natural Factors and Human Influences in the VineyardService | WSET Level 3 Multiple-Choice Questions November 10, 2024 /Corresponding Chapters: “The Vine”, “Growing Environment”, “Vineyard Management” Here is a practice quiz about Natural Factors and Human Influences in the Vineyard (WSET L3).Please answer 10 randomly selected questions. (A total of 148 questions are included.) 1. What is the main impact of nematodes on grapevines? ("Vineyard Management" Average Score: ) Fruit cracking Hindering water and nutrient absorption from the roots Failure to bloom Stunted leaf growth None 2. What is the primary factor determining the timing of the harvest? ("Vineyard Management" Average Score: ) Weather Availability of machinery Grape ripeness Availability of labor None 3. What are the characteristics of the grape growing season in a Mediterranean climate? ("Growing Environment" Average Score: ) Summers are hot and dry. There is a lot of rain throughout the year. There is little temperature variation between day and night. Winters are warm and humid. None 4. What is the main purpose of leaf removal in canopy management? ("Vineyard Management" Average Score: ) To enhance soil fertility To increase leaves and promote photosynthesis To increase sunlight exposure for the fruit and aid in ripening To protect the fruit and maintain humidity None 5. What is the main effect of planting grapes at a high density? ("Vineyard Management" Average Score: ) Increases water retention Increases yield Suppresses tree growth Accelerates tree growth None 6. What are the necessary elements for grapevines to perform photosynthesis effectively? ("Growing Environment" Average Score: ) Sunlight and oxygen Water and light Carbon dioxide and water Oxygen and nutrients None 7. Which terrain is recommended for mechanical harvesting? ("Vineyard Management" Average Score: ) Chalky soil Flat or gently sloping terrain Steep slopes Sandy soil None 8. What is the impact on grape quality if the yield is too high? ("Vineyard Management" Average Score: ) The fruit becomes smaller. The harvest is delayed. There is a possibility that the flavor may be diluted. The acidity increases. None 9. In regions where "irrigation" is prohibited in viticulture, what may be allowed in certain cases? ("Vineyard Management" Average Score: ) Soil warming Large-scale use of water Water replenishment during winter Irrigation to aid in the establishment of young vines None 10. What happens to the grapevine when it enters the ripening stage? ("The Vine" Average Score: ) The fruit changes color and sugar levels increase. The flowers begin to bloom. New leaves grow. It enters a dormant phase. None Time's upBack to Home of WSET Level 3
