Photosynthesis requires: Carbon dioxide (CO2), Hydrogen and Oxygen (in the form of water H2O), these are required to produce glucose, fructose (and sucrose). Sunlight + CO2 + H2O = C6H12O6 + O2
Normal growth (growing processes) require the following "macronutrients" - these are the building blocks of plant growth:
N - Nitrogen (NO3 or NH4)
P - Phosphorus (PO4)
K - Potassium (potassium salts)
S - Sulfur (SO4)
Ca - Calcium (calcium nitrate)
Normal growth (metabolic processes) require the following "micronutrients" - these are used to synthesis protiens, vitamins and enzymes that are required to carry out other metabolic functions:
Mg - Magnesium
Fe - Iron
Cu - Copper
Zn - Zinc
Mn - Manganese
Mo - Molybdenum
B - Boron
Si - Silica

What are the elements required for grass to grow?

What are the macro nutrients and why are they called macro nutrients?
the elements which are very essentiel for the growth of plants are called macro nutrients.these nutrients are required in fairly large quantity show they aare called macronutrients.
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.
How plants get nutrients?
Plants get nutrients from the soil they are in. The nutrients dissolve in the water and are then absorbed from the plant's roots. Plants make food with photosynthesis.
Living on land required that plants?
Living on land required that plants develop adaptations to obtain water and nutrients from the soil, develop structures for support against gravity, and evolve methods for reproduction without the need for water.
How does burning cause loss of plants nutrients?
It bursna away the plants nutrients.
What nutrient is N P K?
It refers to three different nutrients - N is nitrogen, P is potassium, and K is phosphorus. They are often referred to together because they are the major nutrients required by plants.
