Best Answer

Yes, That is the reason it has to be reapplied year after year.

Answer

Not exactly. When taken up through the roots by the crop, it gets biochemically changed into plant material, which is then either harvested or left in the field to decompose, returning to the soil. Fertilizers have to be reapplied because the part of the crop which is harvested is removed from the field. Natural, un-cropped environments don't need fertilizers because the soil nutrients are continually being returned to the soil.

Do your eyes ever stop working?

no they don't except when u do of course!! It depends. If you were to damage your eyes with a chemical or puncture, you could just hurt your eyes or even become blind. Your eyes won't just stop working when your just hanging out. They will only stop if there is something terribly wrong with them, but that RARELY happens. You won't have to worry about your eyes not working because they are perfectly fine! Hope this Helps!
