28 lut 2021 · Discuss the common nutritional needs of plants. Plants obtain food in two different ways. Autotrophic plants can make their own food from inorganic raw materials, such as carbon dioxide and water, through photosynthesis in the presence of sunlight. Green plants are included in this group.
31 lip 2022 · Plant cells need essential substances, collectively called nutrients, to sustain life. Plant nutrients may be composed of either organic or inorganic compounds. An organic compound is a chemical compound that contains carbon, such as carbon dioxide obtained from the atmosphere.
Plants obtain food in two different ways. Autotrophic plants can make their own food from inorganic raw materials, such as carbon dioxide and water, through photosynthesis in the presence of sunlight. Green plants are included in this group. Some plants, however, are heterotrophic: they are totally parasitic and lacking in chlorophyll.
It is clear that plant nutrition has links from nutrient acquisition by the roots, related to soil science, to the functions nutrients perform in plants, and to aspects studied by plant biochemistry and physiology.
13 lip 2021 · The introduction to plant nutrition addresses basic and general topics on the importance of this area to meet nutritional requirements and promote crop growth, development, and yield.
