Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A Nitrogen
Plants require large amounts of nitrogen, because nitrogen is an essential component of amino acids and nucleic acids. Amino acids polymerise to form proteins, which are important for fulfill of number of requirements ranging from structural to functional. Hence, for any biosynthetic activity nitrogen is required. But plants cannot absorb nitrogen directly from atmosphere and absorb nitrogen as nitrate ions from soil.
