Natural and Synthetic Fertilizers At the core of the growth and germination of plants lie the nutrients they receive from the soil. The nutrients required for growth are classified into two groupings‚ macronutirents and micronutrients. Macronutrients are those that are needed in very large amounts‚ and whose absence can do a great harm to the development of the plant life. These nutrients include calcium‚ nitrogen‚ phosphorus‚ and potassium‚ and are very sparse in most soils‚ making them

constantly quicker and more reliable ways to produce foods need to be made. Through hydroponics more plants and crops can be created in a shorter amount of time. "Hydroponics is an excellent method of conducting research with controlled conditions of nutrient availability." The problem is that if the exact amount of minerals are not used the produce may have negative side effects or unwanted results. Through the research of hydroponics the less fortunate can produce their own crop while saving resources

farming and efficient use of water and nutrients without the need for a soil substrate. By removing the necessity of soil‚ farmers can continuously control the temperature and environment of plants through indoor agriculture (permitting year-round crop yield‚ not limited by seasons). Soil-borne diseases and pests are no longer a factor with hydroponically grown plants (Anon. n.d.). Hydroponics is successful because it provides the plant with the exact nutrients that it needs‚ delivering it straight

Problem What effect does the different concentration of hydrochloric acid have to the rate of diffusion of agar that is dissolved with sodium carbonate and phenolphthalein? Introduction Diffusion is a process where the molecules intermingle as a result of their kinetic energy of random motion and is the net movement of like molecules down their concentration gradient‚ which is the energy inherent in their constant molecular motion makes them collide and careen outward from the region of higher

Phosphorus is an essential macro-nutrient for plant growth and sustainable soil management. Phosphorus nutrition can be challenging in acidic soils (e.g. Queensland) and alkaline soils (e.g. South Australia). To achieve sufficient nutrition‚ the soil needs to have a relatively high pH‚ high organic matter content‚ and moist conditions. Specific soil orders such as Vertosols‚ Kandosols‚ Sodosols‚ Rudosols‚ and Calcarosols‚ lack the requirements for phosphorus nutrition. The availability of phosphorus

The majority of us are not experts in nutrition. For example‚ my expertise lies in the realm of the internet. I am a web developer/programmer. It is no secret that in order to enjoy life and perform well in my profession‚ I need to fuel my body. Unfortunately‚ when it comes to nutrition‚ I have skimped and assumed for way too long. I have attempted to eat healthy yet‚ I have also filled my body with plenty of "low grade" fuel. The result over time‚ I began to experience the physical consequences

Tetracycline and Chloramphenicol against Serratia marcescens By C. A. Bechdel Abstract The problem investigated was Serratia marcescens. We hypothesized that both Tetracycline and chloramphenicol will be effective against treating S. marcescens. The experiment was conducted with a single control group and two experimental groups. The experiment was replicated 8 times. The experiment showed that in testing the control group S. marcescens‚ chloramphenicol had a mean death zone of 30.9 mm +/- 2
