Chapter 36.3, Problem 11LO
Summary Introduction
To explain: The effects of mineral depletion and soil erosion on plant growth.
Introduction: Soil is a thin layer of the Earth’s crust. There are large numbers and different types of organisms that colonize the soil. These organisms depend upon the soil for their shelter and food. Almost all the essential nutrients, water, and minerals for the growth of plant are directly obtained from the soil.
