Biology

Inessa [10]3 years ago

Answer: the statements are not given, so I will state the role of calcium in plants.

Calcium pectate, is responsible for holding together the cell walls of plants, it is also used in activating certain enzymes and to send signals that coordinate certain cellular activities in plants. Calcium helps to maintain chemical balance in the soil, it reduces soil salinity, and improves water penetration within soil.

When there is calcium deficiency, it leads to localized tissue necrosis causing stunted plant growth, dead leaf margins or curling on the leaves, and eventual death of terminal buds and root tips of the soil/plant.

Excess levels calcium in the soil can reduce a plant's uptake of other important nutrients such as phosphorus, magnesium, boron, potassium, copper, zinc or iron, leading to deficiencies of these nutrients.
