An acid from plants
acid rain
Chemical weathering can also be caused by the acids produced by some plants. The simple plant, lichen, is an example. As lichens grown on the surface of rock, an acid is produced that dissolves some of the minerals in the rock. Lichen is often called a "pioneer" plant because it is one of the first plants to grow in a rocky area.
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acids) and RNA (ribonucleic acids)
amino acids
Lichens are plantlike organisms that decay to make acids:)
functions of amino acids present in plants
All living things, and parts of them (such as, for example, the leaves of the tobacco plant) contain acids.
carbonic acids dissolve rocks, and caves from underground.
human acid is caused by plant acids, known as the humic acids. Mosses and lichens provide a good example. As these three plants grow on rocks, they produce acids that, in turn, break down the minerals found within the rocks.
It slows down the growth of the plant.
Plant acids are naturally occurring organic acids such as citric acid and malic acid produced by plants in their fruits and other locations. In fruits the acids give plants a tangy taste.

Carbon containing acids are weak acids and fatty acids for example some fatty acids are in meat
What are non examples of acids?
Protein.
plant proteins
no
The total soluble solids in fruit plants contribute to the taste and yield of these plants. For example, the tomato plant consists of lycopene, sugars and acids that contribute to the soluble solids in this plant.
