Solution

The correct option is B Quantity required
Macronutrients are generally present in plant tissues in large amounts (in excess of 10 mmole/Kg of dry matter). Micronutrients or trace elements, are needed in very small amounts (less than 10 mmole/Kg of dry matter). Therefore macronutrients are needed in greater quantity.
