What type of nutrient is phosphorous?
Phosphorous is indispensable for plants.
Do plants need soil to make new materials?
No, plants can grow wherever they can obtain the basic nutrients of phosphorous, potassium and nitrogen. Phosphorous is the key nutrient for cell division, which contributes to growth. They obtain carbon and oxygen through their leaves, so they do not need soil.
Why is phosphorous often a limiting factor in environments?
Phosphorous is often a limiting factor in environments because plants need phosphorous to maintain their cellular biology. If there is insufficient phosphorous, plants will be stunted or not grow at all. If there is too much phosphorous, plants also have a difficult time or won't grow. Phosphorous uptake is not something that plants can control with certainty, and phosphorous could be a limiting nutrient in a given area under study. Use the link to the Wikipedia article on phosphorous and see what is posted on phosphorous and biology.
What would happen if the plants got no phosphorous?
if a plant has no phosphorous,the plant will die after sometime because lack of phosphorous leads to yellowing of the leave which will lead to death

Why do we need phosphorous as part of the right mix of vitamins and minerals?
We need phosphorous as part of the right mix of vitamins and minerals because it is necessary for strong bones and teeth. Phosphorous also helps the body absorb Vitamin B and create energy.
What is the purpose of nitrogen potassium and phosphorous int he soil?
to help plants grow, with out these elements there would be no plants thus, there would be no life
What materials are needed by plant to make food?
Plants, at a minimum, require water, carbon dioxide, and light to make "food" (starch). In practice, to make "human food" they also need nitrogen, phosphorous, sulfur, and about 16 trace elements.
What is the full form of NPK fertilizers?
it is the combination of nitrate,potash and phosphorous used for agriculture
