Water dissolved mineral salts in the soil, facilitating their uptake by plant roots through a process called osmosis. Without water, plants would not be able to absorb essential nutrients from the soil. Additionally, water helps transport these nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant for growth and development.
No, not all phosphate salts are soluble in water. The sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium, and ammonium phosphates are all water soluble, and most other phosphates are either slightly soluble or are insoluble.
The roots of plants are responsible for absorbing water and minerals from the soil. This process occurs through root hairs, which increase the surface area available for absorption. Water and minerals are then transported through the plant's vascular system to other parts of the plant.
No. It is a non silicate mineral and is part of the Oxides group.
The part of the plant that absorbs the water is the roots. The roots are the parts of the plant that are in charge of absorbing everything that the plant needs to live (not including sunlight). Oxygen, water, and minerals are absorbed through the roots.
Nitrate is a negative ion (anion), NO3-. It does not exist in isolation, but must be part of a compound with a positive ion (cation). Examples of nitrate salts are sodium nitrate, NaNO3-, magnesium nitrate, Mg(NO3)2 and ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3. These salts are solid at room temperature and water soluble. (When nitric acid, HNO3, dissolves in water the solution also contains the nitrate ion as well as hydrogen ions)
roots
The roots of the plant absorb mineral salts from the soil. Root hairs and root cells help in the absorption of water and nutrients, including mineral salts which are essential for the plant's growth and development.
absorption
it is water
For ease of water absorption.
The roots!
The process of a mineral dissolving in water is known as dissolution. It occurs when water molecules break down the chemical bonds within the mineral, causing it to disintegrate or become part of the water solution.
Xylem vessels are responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant. They are part of the plants' vascular system, along with phloem, which transports sugars and other organic nutrients.
Root hair region
Anywhere there's a steady flow of mineral-rich water.
Root hairs are the plant part that increases the absorption capacity of roots. These tiny hair-like structures on the surface of roots significantly increase the surface area available for absorbing water and nutrients from the soil.
Plant root is specialized for anchorage and absorption.
