What has the author Antonella Furini written?
Antonella Furini has written: 'Plants and heavy metals' -- subject(s): Plants, Effect of heavy metals on, Heavy-metal tolerant plants
What is the role of humifulvate in detoxifying the plants from heavy metals?
Humifulvate removes heavy metals from plants. The detoxification process occurs when Humifulvate attaches to the toxic Mercury, Lead, Aluminum, or Cadmium and takes them out of the plants system.
What is hyper- accumulation of heavy metals?
Hyperaccumulation of heavy metals is the uptake of heavy metals by plants passed a certain threshold of normal uptake. There are 6 main hypotheses for this phenomena, but the most researched one is the defense-hypothesis which states that the hyperaccumulation helps plants to protect themselves from herbivore/pathogen damage.
Why do heavy metals tolerant plants in rare in areas?
Heavy metals tolerant plants are rare in areas contaminated with heavy metals because such environments often create extreme stress conditions that challenge plant survival and growth. These plants must possess specific adaptations, such as mechanisms for sequestering or detoxifying metals, which can take time to evolve. Additionally, the high toxicity of heavy metals can limit biodiversity, reducing the number of species that can thrive in these areas. Consequently, the combination of environmental stressors and evolutionary pressures results in a scarcity of heavy metals tolerant plant species.

how do metals react with oxygen
What heavy metals that can be taken up by plants?
The metals having density more than 5 are usually known as heavy metals. Density of some heavy metals is as below: Zinc (Zn) 7.13 Iron (Fe) 7.87 Copper (Cu) 8.96 Silver (Ag) 10.49 Lead (Pb) 11.36 Mercury (Hg) 13.55 We use fertilizers which contain elements having density more 5 or more than 5 like zinc sulphate or copper sulphate ets. so we can say that plants take these heavy metals in shape of fertilizers.
When nonmetals and metals react which atom electrons?
Metals loss electrons and nonmetals gain electrons.
What elements react with metals?
Elements from the boron, carbon, pnictogen, chalcogen and halogen families (groups 13 to 17) react with metals.
Name metals which do not react with oxygen?
Au and Pt are some metals which do not react with O.
Do bases react vigorously with many metals?
No, Acids react with metals to form salts.
What happens when nonmetals and metals react?
metals lose electrons when they react with a non-metal
