- Plants make their own essential elements to complete their life cycle. We have figured out which elements are essential by using hydroponic culture, which involves growing plants in clay instead of soil. Micronutrients of plants include carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. Plants only require a small amount of macronutrients which include zinc, copper, and iron. There are 4 mistakes in this paragraph, rewrite it to be correct.arrow_forwardComparison Between Plant and Animal Nutrition. Nutrient is defined as any substance required for growth, development and maintenance of an organism. There are two types of organisms based on their nutrition. Those that are capable of producing their own food are called autotrophs. heterotrophs are those that cannot. For plants, The nutritional requirements include water, carbon dioxide (for photosynthesis), and essential elements like the micronutrients and the macronutrients. The micronutrients comprises 0.5% weight of the plant's dry weight. These include Chlorine, Iron, Zinc, Cobalt, Molybdenum and Boron. Macromolecules, on the other hand, include Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Macromolecules would include Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Potassium, Magnesium and Sulfur. Plants get to absorb these nutrients through the symplast route which uses the root systems to bring these nutrients from the soil and the apoplast route which moves nutrients through the cell wall and intercellular spaces…arrow_forwardMacronutrients provide us the energy to live, move, and function.
