Why are most fertilizers rich in nitrogen and phosphorous?

Cause nitrogen causes plants to grow very well. I don't think plants can do anything with nitrogen gas, the only way they can get it is through the roots, called fixed nitrogen. In nature the only things that fix nitrogen are lightning and microbes that exist in roots of certain plants. So nitrogen is rare in nature and is a limiting factor in plant growth.

Most fertilizers are made from animal (Cow most of the time) waste. The animal waste is high in animal byproducts which are mostly nitrogen and phosphorous.

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

In reproductive or sexual cells

Explanation:

There are two principal types of cells in the organism: Somatic diploid cells (2n) that reproduce by the process of mitosis, and germ cells that are diploid reproductive cells in charge of gamete production. These germ cells suffer both mitosis (to form more sexual cells) and meiosis (giving place to haploid gametes: sperm and egg cells, through the gametogenesis process). Both somatic cells and germinal cells will end their cycle becoming two daughter cells with the same genetic dotation.

Gametes from each parent will merge in the process of fecundation, during which a new diploid cell called a zygote emerges through fertilization. The zygote is a complete cell from the structural point of view that suffers successive mitosis to form the new organism.

Any cell in the organism might suffer mutation.

  • If the mutation occurs in the somatic cells, it will produce a population of identical mutated cells in that organism. However, this mutation in these cells is not inheritable. By definition, mutations in somatic cells do not inherit because these cells do not produce progeny.
  • If the mutation occurs in the germinal line, in the germ cells, or the sexual cells, this <u>mutation will pass to the offspring</u>. The organism with mutated germinal cells might express a normal phenotype, but this mutation will be detected in the progeny.
