It is decomposed into the soil and used up by plants for growth. Phosporus is important to plants because the cell membrane is a phospholipid bilayer. DNA also relies on phosphorus in its sugar-phosphate backbone. Finally, ATP contains three phosphate molecules. A reddish-purple color on the leaves of a plant indicates a phosphorus deficiency.

How does runoff affect the rate of erosion?
As runnoff travels it forms tiny grooves and as a stream runs down erosion happens as the rocks get carried away. Poops
