Name two nutrients that plants need.
artcher [175]

Answer:

Sunlight and water.

Explanation:

The sun is the plant's most important nutrient. Plants convert sunlight into sugars in order to grow. Water is needed in two ways, it serves as both a solvent for mineral salts that are carried inside plant cells, and it is an essential component of photosynthesis. The questioner might have asked "name one" so they don't have enough information to answer with any greater certainty - but the answer remains the same regardless of how many nutrients they ask about.

Minerals are also required by plants in order to function properly including calcium, potassium, iron, magnesium just to name a few minerals which are found in healthy nutritious produce!

Katyanochek1 [597]

Interfacial adhesion and surface bioactivity of anodized titanium modified with SiON and SiONP surface coatings, The statement is correct.

<h3>what is adhesion ?</h3>

Adhesion is a type of attraction between two dissimilar phases, the theory of adhesion can be up two types mechanical interlocking and physical and chemical bonding and it is a combination of three methods.

Mechanical interlocking means when two dissimilar phases interact with  one another by mechanical forces, requires a rough surface where the other material can enter.

Physical bonding includes van der Waals forces and the strength  is rather weak and unable to contribute that much bonding strength.

Chemical bonding consist of covalent, ionic and metallic bonding which are more stronger than physical bonds and are responsible for cohesive forces.

chemical bonding between two dissimilar materials is  more complicated due to the presence of few available bonding sites.

Soil erosion is the washing away of top most layer of soil due to various reasons.

Agents of soil erosion are: wind, water, animals, ice or gravity.

Water is one of the biggest agent or cause of soil erosion. Water carry lots of energy in its motion. When water moves from any area it carries away topmost layer of soil with it. The soil that is being carried away by water is sediment.

When this water reach river, lake or any other water source, sediments carried by them enters that source of water. Sediment results in water pollution.
