What else can I help you with?
Why fertilizers are more efficient than manures?
because fertilizers are rich in nutrients
Do vitamins contain vegtables?
No, But vegetables contain vitamins as well as many other needed nutrients.
Why are artificial fertilizers needed?
Artificial fertilizers are used and needed for a number of reasons. These fertilizers help meet the deficit made by real fertilizers.
What nutrients do apples contain?
Apples contain many nutrients that are needed for a healthy and well-balanced diet. These nutrients include flavonols, catechins, anthocyanin's, chlorogenic acid, phloridizin, and many other polyphenol nutrients. Apples also contain Vitamin C and fiber pectin.
Which nutrients are found in fertilizers and why are they needed by the plant?
Nitrogen [N], phosphorus [P], and potassium[K] tend to be the nutrients that are found in fertilizers. Nitrogen encourages proper root growth. Phosphorus encourages proper shoot growth. Potassium encourages proper fruiting and flowering, and promotes overallplant health.
Why is light needed in the process of photosynthesis?
Light is needed because the sun's rays contain nutrients that the plant needs to grow.
What fertilizer consists of?
Simple plant fertilizers combine N, P and K; nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium. These are the elements most needed by plants. There are many more elements needed and more complex fertilizers are available for this. In particular, some soils are deficient in 'trace elements' such as selenium, but these tend to be of local importance.
How do fertilizers work?
In addition to sunlight, CO2 and water, plants need certain elements in order to produce the compounds that they require to live. The most needed are nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. There are a number of others. Fertilizers are an attempt to replace these elements into the soil so that plants can grow faster than they would if you waited for nature to replenish these things "normally" (mainly by decay). But if you add to much fertilizer then the plants can get "burned" and will lose productivity. Also Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium are macro nutrients.
What is a class of nutrients that contain carbon and that are needed in small amounts to maintain health and allow growth?
Protein (amino acids)

Protein (amino acids)
Which fruits are needed to get vitamins?
Different fruits contain different vitamins. The rule of thumb is to eat different coloured fruit and veg because the pigments contain different nutrients.
What makes fertilizer so effective?
Fertilizers provide the nutrients which plants need. The principle ones are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Nitrogen is needed to make proteins, phosphorus is needed for nucleic acids, and potassium has many roles including controlling the opening and closing of stomata. Intensive gardening and agriculture often remove these nutrients from the soil.
