Ahmad Ali He makes 3 very similar statements about his own
The process by which plants can pump salts out of their roots is called "ion exclusion."
Ion exclusion is a mechanism by which plants are able to prevent the uptake of unwanted ions, such as sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl-), while still allowing the uptake of essential ions, such as potassium (K+) and calcium (Ca2+).
This process involves specialized cells in the root called "transfer cells," which have a high concentration of transport proteins in their cell membranes. These transport proteins actively transport ions across the membrane, creating an electrochemical gradient that allows the exclusion of unwanted ions.
In addition, the roots of some plants have a specialized layer called the "endodermis," which acts as a barrier to the movement of ions from the root to the shoot. This layer also contains transport proteins that selectively allow the passage of essential ions while excluding unwanted ones.
Overall, the ion exclusion process is an important adaptation that allows plants to survive in soils with high salt concentrations
osmosis
Salts are absorbed by the roots.
many things but mostly makes a balanced soil so plants can absorb nutrients. Roots when feeding the plants try to get rid of salts and with bad pH these salts will build up around the roots (looks like a snot ball...eww) and keep roots from absorbing...etc..
Nitrate or Ammonium salts. These are called Fixed Nitrogen.
The process by which plants absorb mineral salts from the soil is called "nutrient uptake." This occurs primarily through the roots, where water and dissolved minerals are taken in from the soil. The absorbed nutrients are essential for various physiological functions, including growth and development. Active transport mechanisms often facilitate this process, allowing plants to acquire necessary minerals even against concentration gradients.
Water dissolved mineral salts in the soil, facilitating their uptake by plant roots through a process called osmosis. Without water, plants would not be able to absorb essential nutrients from the soil. Additionally, water helps transport these nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant for growth and development.
In a hydroponics farm, plants absorb water and mineral salts through their roots from a nutrient solution that is directly delivered to them. The roots sit in the solution, allowing the plants to take up the water and nutrients they need for growth and development without the use of soil.
During photosynthesis , sugar is made by the plants. The plant absorbs minerals salts form water or from the soil by its roots. These salts provide importants elaments to the plants e.g nitrogen , calcium , iron .
Mineral salts are absorbed by the roots of plants through a process called active transport and passive diffusion. Active transport requires energy and involves the movement of minerals against a concentration gradient, while passive diffusion does not require energy and allows minerals to move down their concentration gradient. Once inside the roots, minerals are transported to the rest of the plant through the xylem and phloem.
most plant use there roots to absorb water from the earth or soil but some plants use their leaves to catch water.
Plants most of the time have roots in the soil. These roots have root hairs and get mineral/salts + water from the soil. The xylem/phloem tubes in the plant transport these mineral/salts + water to different places of the plant. So simply said: Plant get their food from the soil. And so it also depends if your soil is well fertilised etc.
All the plants need fertilizers which are salts.
