Is food a limiting factors for plants?

Plants have limiting factors for nutrition and growth, While they manufacture sugars from atmospheric carbon dioxide and sunlight through photosynthesis they need other nutrient s like nitrogen, phosphorus and water. The role of trace metals in their diets like copper is also a consideration. These nutrients or foods are limiting factors in plant growth and health.


What process directly moves nutrients from plants to animals?

Consumption, where animals eat plants or other animals that have consumed plants, is the primary process that directly moves nutrients from plants to animals. Through this process, animals obtain the nutrients necessary for their growth and survival.

Organisms that manufacture organic nutrients for an ecosystem are called?

Producers. These are organisms that can photosynthesize, like plants, algae, and some bacteria, using sunlight to convert inorganic substances into organic nutrients that can be used by other organisms in the ecosystem.


Plants that grow directly on the bodies of other plants but manufacture their own foods are?

Epiphytes. These plants obtain nutrients and water from the air around them and do not rely on their host plants for these resources. They have evolved adaptations to thrive in the challenging habitat of growing on other plants.


Why do pitcher plant needs to eat insect?

Pitcher plants grow on less fertile soil. you must remember that plants need several nutrients to manufacture food. For eg Nitrogen. Magnesium is necessary for chlorophyll. Hence to get nutrients, pitcher plants trap insects. When they get digested, nutrients are released. They use these nutrients to manufacture foods. Remember all green plants are AUTOTROPHIC. So is a pitcher plant. Auto means self and Trophism means feeding.

Can plants steal other plants nutrients?

Yes, some plants can release chemicals to inhibit the growth of neighboring plants and compete for nutrients. This process is known as allelopathy. Additionally, some plants with invasive roots can outcompete other plants for nutrients by absorbing them from the soil before neighboring plants can access them.

What is the name of a plant that do not manufacture its own food?

A1 cascutta.A2. some Orchids parasitise upon fungal hyphae, and do not have chlorophyll themselves Gastrodia genus is one such. It draws its food from a fungus.Broom rape is another common weed which shares this characteristic. These epiparasites draw their food from the roots of other plants.Quite separately, there are Brown and Red seaweeds which each use a pathway different from chlorophyll to split water into H and O.
