Fertilizers, artificial or natural are a source of nitrogen compounds (and other mineral salts) that plants need to grow. Thus if fertilizer is supplied to the plant roots in the quantities they need, these plants will grow and produce more than plants growing in soils where there is not enough of these nutrients.
Note however that over application of fertilizer will harm the plants, farmers need to analyze their soil before applying fertilizer so that they only apply the amount needed. This maximizes plant growth and minimizes the cost.
yes
Yes, fertilizer is a plant mineral.Specifically, fertilizer contains minerals. The minerals derive from plants when the fertilizers are considered organic. They derive from artificial, chemical or synthetic ingredients when the fertilizers are considered inorganic.
Artificial fertilizers provide radilly the essential elments like nitrogen, phosphorus and potash for plant growth.
Fertilizers contain minerals that make up for minerals lost by plants. They are either natural, such as sewadge sludge, or artificial, such as NPK. Too much of fertilizer can be harmful, though, as excess runs off into nearby lakes or streams, boosting the growth of algae. As the algae decomposes, bacteria feeds on it, causing the water to become oxygen-deficient. This causes fish and insects to die.
I am not sure how
Fertilizer is artificial.
Insufficient fertilizer in plants can cause deficiency symptoms and slow plant growth. Excess fertilizer, meanwhile, can lead to salinity problems.
The excessive use of artificial fertilizers are harmful for plants. The capacity of the plant growth is reduced. The use of manure which is a natural fertilizer helps in good growth of plants.
An independent variable is the variable in the experiment that affects the other variable. For example, in an experiment that tests the affect of the amount of fertilizer on plant growth, the amount of fertilizer is the independent variable and the plant growth is the dependent variable. This is because the plant growth DEPENDS on the amount of fertilizer.
yes
Ammonia affects plant growth. Ammonia is a plant fertilizer which helps it grow better.
Phosphates do. They are an effective fertilizer.
The dependent variable is the growth that depends upon (or results from) the application of fertilizer. The independent variable is the fertilizer itself.
Plant growth will increase when fertilizer is added, in as much as the plant is deficient in the nutrients the fertilizer provides. Most processes in nature has a bell-shaped to its function where too much, even of a good thing, can begin to do harm.
