Plants cannot make protein from pure carbohydrate, because proteins contain nitrogen and sometimes sulphur. They get the nitrogen which they need from the nitrates in the soil. They get the sulphur from sulphates in the soil.

Can you extract sulphur from plants?
Hermen Frasch in 1894 devised a brilliant technique of obtaining sulphur from these deposits. His technique was practical, simple and cost effective. In this process, now called the Frasch process, a system of three concentric pipes is sunk into the earth to reach the sulphur beds (about 300m deep).
Do cotton plants use photosynthesis?
All plants use photosynthesis.
The food plants make is what?
Photosynthesis
What uses photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is the process which creates glucose using sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. The equation for photosynthesis is: 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight = C6H12O6 + 6 O2.
What kind of organisms use photosynthesis?
plants
What effect does sulphur dioxide have on the land?
Sulphur dioxide reacts with water and forming sulphuric acid that harms the plants and agriculture.
What are the emissions from coal combustion at thermal power plants?
Oxides of Nitrogen Oxides of Sulphur
What effect does sulfur dioxide have on plants?
Sulphur dioxide is very harmful to plants and it can kill them. Sulphur Dioxide is the main gas produced by the burning of coal and it is cleared into the atmosphere. Moreover Sulphur Dioxide can react with water vapour in the atmosphere and produce a dangerous acid called sulphuric acid which is the acid in acid rain. Sulphuric acid can break plants (and animals) down, therefore the plants die. i love does nuts
Is sulfur trioxide a primary or secondary pollutant?
Coal and oli contain sulphur. When either one burns, it produces sulphur dioxide. The sulphur dioxide gradually turns into sulphur trioxide which mixes with rain and becomes acid rain. It is easy to remove the sulphur in refineries or power plants.

How do you separate iron from sulphur in a mixture of iron fillings and sulphur?
you an use a magnet to get the iron fillings out
How do you spell the element sulphur?
The spelling sulfur is used in the US. Other locations may still use "sulphur."
What is the valency of sulphur in SO3?
Things are complicated if we use the term valency. It is better to use the term Oxidation state or Oxidation Number. In SO2, the oxidation state of sulphur is +4 and In SO3, the oxidation state of sulphur is +6.
How do you separate iron filings from sulphur?
use a magnet
Why is acid rain acidic?
All plants and animals must have sulphur. Coal and oil are made from old plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. They contain sulphur. Refineries can remove most of the sulphur from most of the oil turned into fuel oil or gasoline. Refineries, factories and power plants can remove the sulphur dioxide from their smokestacks. Frequently they do not. When they do not, the sulphur dioxide turns into sulphur trioxide. The Sulphur trioxide then when the sulphur trioxide runs into a cloud or a drop of water, it turns into sulphuric acid. When it falls to earth, it falls as acid rain. Acid rain is sulphuric acid falling to earth. In North Florida the rain accompanying the first cold front of the fall changed the pH of a swimming pool from 8 to 4. That indicates the amount of acid in the air over the Midwest and Midsouth of the United States. Right now technology exists to rid smokestacks of sulphuric acid.
What chemical elements did Charles goodyear use to invent vulcanized rubber?
Sulphur. He discovered that mixing Sulphur with the rubber changed its properties.
What kind of soil is needed for raspberry bush?
