What force works against gravity as water infiltrates the soil and moves underground ?

This force is called capillary action.

Hope this is the answer... : )

when you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts (tightens) and moves downward. this increases the space in your chest cavity, into which your lungs expand. the intercostal muscles between your ribs also enlarge the chest cavity. they contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.

im not intirely sure but i think the anwser is d relative humidity
