What is the primary effect of excess phosphorus in the aquatic environment called?

The primary effect of excess phosphorus in the aquatic environment is called eutrophication. Phosphorus is one of several nutrients needed for plant growth. Excess amounts of nutrients however leads to excess plant growth and as these, at times huge amounts of plants die, oxygen is taken out of the water by bacteria during the decomposition process that can lead to eutrophic conditions where the dissolved oxygen is too low to support aquatic organisms.


What is plant's release of excess water vapor called?

transpiration


How does excess water leave a plant?

xylem moves the water from the roots to the rest of the plant. on the underside of leaves there are tiny holes called 'stomata' and surrounding them are bands called 'guard cells.' the guard cells open and close the stomata and water and oxygen are released.

What is it called when a plant bursts of excess water pressure?

It's called guttation. Guttation occurs when the plant absorbs more water than it can transpire, leading to the release of excess water through specialized structures called hydathodes.


Part of a plant that serves as a center for absorption and food storage?

The roots of a plant serve as a center for absorption of water and nutrients from the soil. Additionally, the roots act as a storage organ for excess nutrients and energy in the form of starch.


Why Plants begin to die when excess of soluble fertilizers are added to?

Excess soluble fertilizers can lead to a phenomenon called fertilizer burn, where salts accumulate in the soil and roots, disrupting the osmotic balance within the plant. This can lead to dehydration, nutrient imbalances, and ultimately, plant death. Additionally, excessive fertilizers can alter the pH levels of soil, further impacting the plant's ability to absorb nutrients.


How do nutrients travel from the soil to the plant?

Nutrients travel from the soil to the plant through a process called absorption. Plant roots take in water and nutrients from the soil through their root hairs. This allows the plant to receive essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which are necessary for growth and development.
