Question

Choose three nutrients and explain how a plant may look if it has a deficiency in those nutrients.

Answer 1

Answer:

A nutrient can be described as a substance which is used for the survival, growth and reproduction of an organism.

Three nutrients which plants require are:

NITROGEN (N): Nitrogen is important for growth and immunity. Without nitrogen, the plant will not be able to grow or produce immunity.

PHOSPHORUS (P): Strengthens root systems, capacity for seed creation, disease resistance, and pest prevention. Improves flowers and blooming. Also strengthens tissues and flavors in edibles and veggies. Without phosphorus, plants will not be able to produce sweet fruits.

CALCIUM

Strengthens and fortifies overall tissues everywhere. Also helps neutralize acidity, both within the plant and in its surrounding soil, for optimal health.
