primarynutrients can be also called macro nutrients which are the essential elements which are used by plants in large amounts, they are COHNPK which is an acronym i remember them with = carbon, oxygen, hydrogen Nitrogen Phosphrus and Potasium they all play diffrent roles in the plants like oxygen which is used for Photorespitation, manythings
Micro-nutriens are the trace elements needed in small quatities wayy smaller than Macronutrients for plant growth.
there is a lot but to name a few: Iron(which is sometimes called a macromolecule as well) Boron, manganese, cobolt and soo on and soo forth. I'm even doing and exam on this tomorrow. :) I'm just reading about it right now.
What else can I help you with?
Define micro and macro nutrients?
Macro nutrients = six nutrients are required by the plants in large quantities and hence these are called macro nutrients. Micro nutrients = iron , manganese , zinc , copper , molybdenum , boron and chlorine are the micro nutrients which used in small quantities.
What major hydro-organic nutrients help in the production cycle of growing plants?
Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are major types of hydro-organic nutrients that are helpful in the production cycle of growing plants. Hydro-organic growers call them the primary macro-nutrients that nevertheless must be supplemented, for complete and proper growth, by the secondary macro-nutrients calcium, magnesium and sulfur. Macro-nutrients ultimataely require the bolstering effects of trace elements, also known as micro-nutrients, such as copper, iron, manganese and sodium.
What is the basis for dividing the seventeen essentials plants nutrients into two classes of macro nutrients and micro nutrients?
the amount needed from each
Do hydroponically grown plants need both micro and macro nutrients to live?
yes
Why does a plant need nutrients?
plants need macro nutrients and micro nutrients. macro nutrients are needed at large quantity and micro nutrients are needed in small quantities. there are 10 macro nutrients and 6 micro nutrients.The 10 macro nutrients arecarbonhydrogenoxygennitrogenpotassiumcalciummagnesiumsulphurironphosphorousthe 6 micro nutrients aremolybdenumchlorineboronzinccoppermanganese
Where do parasites absorb nutrients from?
From their hosts. The hosts may be plants, animals or even micro-organisms.
Are fertilisers food for plants?
They help as supplement of necessary minerals which aid in growth of plants. They are the ones which provide the lacking micro nutrients like the Nitrogen, Potassium, Phosphorus, Chromium e.t.c. They are primarily the supplements of micro-nutrients and nitrogenous substrate that aid in their growth.
What are some of the other ways that pond micro-organisms obtain their nutrients besides photosynthesis?
Besides photosynthesis, they obtain their nutrients by feeding on decaying micro-organisms and animal matter Signed, Broccoli (SACPS) PRIMARY 5

What are the micro nutrients?
vitamins
What are the micro-nutrients?
vitamins
Why are trace elements important?
Plants get trace elements - micro nutrients from the soil or from fertilizer supplied by the grower. Animals get micro nutrients from plants. Humans can by food fortified with micro nutrients eg calcium in milk.
