Nutrient elements that are absorbed by plants in large amounts
Micronutrient elements
A type of nutrient elements that absorbs by the plant in smaller amount
Structural elements
Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen is a type of nutrient elements that comes from water and air. What do you call this type of nutrient elements?
Manganese
Which of the following is a micronutrient?
NO2-
Which of the following is a symbol of Ammonium?
Molybdenum
The micronutrient element that is absorb by the plant in least amount
Nitrogen
Plant nutrient that encourage vegetative growth of plants
Phosphorus
Plant nutrient that is required for energy transfer of ATP and ADP
Magnesium
A micronutrient that is a central component of chlorophyll
Sulfur
Nutrient that is essential component of amino acid Methionine, Cysteine and Cystine
Sulfur
Nutrient that is a constituent of coenzyme A, Biotin, Thiamine and Glutathione
Potassium
A macronutrient that is not a component of any organic molecule
Molybdenum
Micronutrient that is involve in nitrogen fixation
Zinc
Micronutrient which is involve in the synthesis of auxin
Iron
Micronutrient which is involve in chlorophyll synthesis
Calcium
Nutrient which is a constituent of cell wall
Boron
Micronutrient that is important in the translocation of sugars
Potassium
Nutrient that can increase pest and disease resistant
Mobile nutrients
Deficiency of these nutrients mostly on macronutrients can be seen in older leaves or lower part
Immobile nutrients
Deficiency of these nutrients mostly on micronutrients can be seen on younger leaves or upper part
Micronutrient
Needed by the plants relatively in low amount
Phosphorus
Deficiency of this micronutrient can make plants become stunted and shows purple coloration on their leaves
Potassium
Deficiency of this micronutrient shows scorching or burning on their leaf margins
Potassium
When this nutrient is excessive, it leads to nitrogen deficiency
Calcium
Deficiency that cause blossom end rot disease in tomato
Manganese
Plant shows interveinal chlorosis on younger leaves
Iron
Micronutrient needed in hemoglobin formation
Iron
Deficiency that cause chlorosis on younger leaves
Calcium
A micronutrient that is part of middle lamella and deficient in acid upland soils
Nitrogen
A macronutrient that is a component of protein and chlorophyll and is most limiting element in crop production except for legumes
Calcium
Considered as one of the lime nutrients
Nitrogen cycle
It is a biogeochemical process through which nitrogen is converted into many forms and it involves several processes such as Nitrogen fixation, Nitrification, Denitrification and Volatilization
Leaching
A downward movement of water with mineral nutrients and sometimes cause of soil acidity
Mineralization
A process where organic N is converted into inorganic N and renders available for plant use
Immobilization
A process where inorganic N is converted into organic N and renders unavailable for plant use
