Are too many nutrients bad for the bay?
yes it is it can kill plants
What is an important difference between a plant and an animal?
chlorophyl Plants take in nutrients by absorption from their environment, and animals take in nutrients by bringing food inside their bodies and digesting it internally. Many plants, but not all, produce food by photosynthesis (using chlorophyl). Animals also have no cell walls, and all plants have cell walls.
Why are decomposer helpful to the food chain?
Because decompose animals had nutrients. And when it was burried in land. The nutrients of the decayed animals and plants goes to the soil itself. So, when someone plant a plants, the nutrients of the decomposer will eventually go to the plants in order them to had a strong stem. And to have many fruits. That fruits will eat by the animals and human beings. So, decomposed materials are too helpful. :P
Organisms that obtain nutrients by breaking down dead and decaying plants and animals are called?
Organisms that break down wastes an dead organisms and return the raw material to the environment are called decomposers.
Why carnivorous plants use insects as food?
carnivores plants use insects as there food Carnivorous plants evolved to exploit very difficult conditions. Often found in swamps and bogs where soil nutrients are scarce, carnivorous plants take much of their nourishment from the insects and small animals they trap. These plants flourish where others struggle to survive.For vigorous growth, all plants need the same basic nutrients--including nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus. Swamps and bogs rich in decaying material like dead woody plants actually are nutrient-poor. Many essential nutrients become locked in the cycle of decomposition. In tropical highlands, the frequent rain washes most nutrients from the thin soil. Many dense rain forests also are built upon soil that is poor, with most nutrition locked away in mature living plants. All of these areas represent rich habitats to plants capable of digesting insects.Insect bodies contain many of the nutrients lacking in the habitats of carnivorous plants. Nitrogen forms about 10 percent of an insect corpse, potassium accounts for about 3 percent, and phosphorus represents 0.6 percent. Many other essential minerals like magnesium and iron are also part of the reward of digesting an insect without waiting for the soil to claim it.
How do plants and animals help us in brief?
animals eat plants get the nutrients we eat the animal we get the nutrients
Soil has to be rich in what to support many plants?
nutrients
How can you Use the word nutrients in a sentence?
Plants have a lot of nutrients that is why there are tall and strong.
How do plants and animals adjust to their environment?
Flowers adapt in a garden because the soil in which the plant is growing in has a lot of nutrients and if another plant or organism dies, all the nutrients go into the soil and that is what plants feed on. So as you can see flowers have many adaptations to protect the plant,all while looking gorgeous.
Do plants receive their nutrients chiefly from sunlight?
Plants need sunlight for photosynthesis, but they get many of their nutrients from the soil. That is why farmers use fertilizer on their fields, and organic growers add compost to soil. As plants use nutrients from the soil, it needs to be replenished for the next crop.
What comes out of the earth?
Volcanoes, springs, many minerals, nutrients for plants.
Are too many nutrients bad for the bay?
yes it is it can kill plants
Why do farmers put fertilizer on soil?
farmers fertilise soil because it means they can grow good crops every year. The soil only has so many nutrients, essential to plants, and they can be used up easily. Without nutrients, the plants will die so farmers add extra nutrients to keep their plants alive with enough nutrients
Is a desert an environment?
yes it is an environment because it has animals and plants for example: Cati and many others
Aquarim fish which doesn't need plants?
Many of the Cichlid type fish will destroy any plants in their environment but the vast majority of fish prefer a natural environment with living plants
How does landscaping harm the planet?
One problem with landscaping is that often native plants are replaced with non-native species. This impacts the environment in many ways. Planting a non-native species is like putting it in a hostile environment because it has not evolved to co-exist with the insects and native plants of the area. Also, you must meet the alien plant's requirements for water and nutrients, which may differ from those found in the planting area. So, in order to keep your alien plant alive in its new environment, you may have to water it, amend the soil to add nutrients and apply pesticides and herbicides to keep the local flora and fauna at bay. On a small scale, the impact on the environment is minimal; however, the impact increases as more and more of the world is landscaped. Many landscapers understand these problems and use native species and/or plants that live in similar areas when planting and use organic methods of controlling pests and add nutrients.
