Which mechanism governed water flow between Mughal garden terraces?

💡 Explanation

Hydraulic head, based on gravity and height difference, determined water potential because it drove the cascading flow through channels between terraces. Therefore, terraces varied, rather than constant flow (siphon) or microscopic effects (capillary action).
